I had used MAGMA installed via conda. Is this wrong? Apparently I have to register with http://magma.maths.usyd.edu.au/magma and wait a few days to install it manually. Is this something every PyTorch developer does?
By the way: I’ve spent a couple of days fulltime so far on trying to build PyTorch, and it starts to feel like I’m doing something significantly wrong. I had set up the machine (with Ubuntu), installed Cuda, cuDNN etc., and then followed the instructions in contributing.md. As a potential first-time contributor: Are there any other ways to get started? I’m only doing this because I think I need my own build of PyTorch so I can get the tests in test/run_test.sh to pass before making a pull request. The actual coding to fix the issue was a mere fraction of the time I’ve invested into trying to build PyTorch.
What else can I do? Would it help if I use Docker? Do I have to switch to AWS?
