[BUILD] fvdb not installable

[JamesPerlman]

Environment

Windows 11, python 3.11.9, miniconda3 (conda 24.7.1)

Describe the problem

In openvdb/fvdb/README.md there is an incomplete instruction:

fVDB is provided as an installable python package from [todo: insert package distributor].

In addition, the conda install command given in the README does not appear to be working.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. As per the README, run conda install -c jswartz fvdb
2. See the PackagesNotFoundError for fvdb

Additional context

I am really looking forward to using fVDB!

I corresponded with James offline and advised that building for Windows is currently not supported. I've also unfortunately left instructions for a test build of fVDB up on the docs which I'll remove.

Hi, I tried the same command conda install -c jswartz fvdb on Linux and got the same issue PackagesNotFoundError: The following packages are not available from current channels:- fvdb

Hi @OasisYang, at the moment we don't have packaged builds distributed for fvdb. The build instructions should still be relevant and work but the conda command in the README is an instruction from an old test package. This conda command information will be removed shortly, sorry for the confusion.
