ya it is indeed weird. I am able to install it in my laptop. Just doesn’t seem to work on my pc…
It is interesting to note that the below command worked:
pip install --user https://s3.amazonaws.com/pytorch/whl/cu75/torch-0.1.6.post22-cp27-none-linux_x86_64.whl

This is an older version though. I found this answer from one of your comments which actually solved the problem back in January for some other user. I can download this version. But if there is a fix I would obviously would love to install the latest version.
