Build Failure on Ubuntu ARM64 - Unsupported Wheel Error for fairseq

[Mr187k]

I am encountering an issue while building the Docker image for TTS-WebUI on an Ubuntu ARM64 environment. The build fails when attempting to install the dependencies specified in requirements.txt. Below are the details of my setup and the relevant error logs.

---

Environment Details:

• Operating System: Ubuntu 24.04.02 LTS (ARM64)
• Docker Version: 28.3.3, build 980b856

---

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Clone the TTS-WebUI repository.
2. Run the following command to build the Docker image:

   docker build -t tts-webui .

3. The build process fails during the pip3 install step.

---

Observed Behavior:

The following error is encountered during the build process:

ERROR: fairseq-0.12.13-cp310-cp310-manylinux_2_17_x86_64.manylinux2014_x86_64.whl is not a supported wheel on this platform.

This suggests that the fairseq package is not compatible with the ARM64 architecture.

---

Expected Behavior:

The Docker image should build successfully on an ARM64 system.

Shell Output:

ubuntu@a1:~/tts-webui$ docker build -t tts-webui .
...

Additional Information:

• The fairseq dependency appears to be architecture-specific and does not support ARM64.
• There are many packages in requiremnts.txt with only x86_64 support on linux.

Thanks for the detailed report, I'm sure others will find it too.
At the moment I have not approached ARM64 platforms, and I suspect that fairseq is just one of the many things that will break. If I find the time for it, I'll see if I can create a build pipeline for ARM64 Ubuntu dockerfile, but that's at least a few weeks of delay.
For fairseq specifically, it might work if you remove that line from the requirements.txt and instead let pip build the fairseq dependency directly.

Thank you for the prompt reply. I will remove fairseq and any other failing packages from requirements.txt and try again.
