Hit the same issue. Can instead just install syft from PyPI (I am guessing syft hadn't been packaged when the course was first released, hence the instruction to install from source), though bear in mind you need to install syft==0.5.x as duet (used in the tutorials) is deprecated from 0.6 onwards.

You'll probably still end up with a bunch of dependency version issues. I've managed to get things seemingly all working ok with the below conda config (I'm running on OSx with M2 processor):

name: openmined-courses
channels:
  - pytorch
  - conda-forge
  - defaults
dependencies:
  - cpuonly
  - dataclasses
  - flask>=1.1.2,<2.0.0
  - jupyter
  - loguru
  - matplotlib
  - nest-asyncio
  - numpy
  - pandas
  - pip
  - pynacl
  - pytorch<=1.8.0,>=1.4.0
  - python>=3.6
  - requests
  - scikit-learn
  - seaborn
  - setuptools
  - sqlitedict
  - statsmodels
  - torchvision<=0.9,>=0.5
  - typeguard
  - typing-extensions
  - websockets
  - pip:
    - aiortc
    - cryptography>=3.4.7
    - dpcontracts
    - forbiddenfruit>=0.1.3
    - protobuf==3.20
    - pydagogy
    - syft==0.5.1

Hope this helps!
