 !!! note
     It is important to install the same major & minor version of vLLM and vLLM Omni, otherwise things may not work as expected. If the versions are misaligned, you will see a warning when you import vLLM Omni.
 
-    If you are seeing strange behavior with the `vllm` command not handling the `--omni` flag correctly, you most likely have a version mismatch with vLLM < `0.25.0` and vLLM Omni `0.25.0`, as vLLM Omni no longer hijacks the vLLM entrypoint. Updating vLLM should resolve this issue.
