ImportError: cannot import name 'get_dist_info' from 'mmcv.runner.utils'

See original GitHub issue

When I run this command: python tools/demo.py configs/elephant/cityperson/cascade_hrnet.py ./models_pretrained/epoch_5.pth.stu demo/ result_demo/

I am getting this error: ImportError: cannot import name 'get_dist_info' from 'mmcv.runner.utils'

I have installed mmdetection as per your instructions and also tried for conda-instruction.

I updated mmcv as per the suggestions got online but nothing is working. Now my mmcv version is 0.4.4

I solved this issue by downgrading mmcv from 0.4.4 to 0.2.14 and the demo.py is running fine but there are no any bounding boxes on the result images.

Most probably it is still an installation issue, after installing mmcv did you compile Pedestron using the following command ? python setup.py develop

Secondly, juts have a look at the installation page and see if you have followed all the instructions correctly.
