So the download does work now at least with transformers 4.1.1. Thank you.
I guess it’s the case though that models that were uploaded to the model hub using the new model hub system cannot be downloaded using versions of transformers <3.5.0.
Does this mean that there is no way to make this downloading of new models backwards compatible with older versions of transformers? It would be great if I could download all models–including those that were uploaded using the new hub system–from the hub using from_pretrained with transformers <3.5.0.
