Anaconda3/compiler_compat/ld: cannot find -lpthread

1

Hi all,

When I compile the pytorch from source, I got the following errors.

/home/xxx/anaconda3/compiler_compat/ld: cannot find -lpthread
/home/xxx/anaconda3/compiler_compat/ld: cannot find -lc

My environment is like this,

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/cuda/lib64:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/xxx/anaconda3/lib/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/xxx/anaconda3/pkgs/cudnn-7.0.5-cuda8.0_0/lib/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export LD_PRELOAD=/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0

The gcc version is gcc version 5.2.0.

I have tried numerous ways, but still cannot solve this problem. Could anybody help me?

Thanks

Do you have an active environment? If so, could you switch back to the root env?
If this doesn’t help, you could try to update your conda with conda update conda.

I simply fixed this problem by deleting the anaconda and pytorch, and reinstalled them again.
