ImportError: libcusparseLt.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Hello,
Recently I updated CUDA version to 12.2 in my machine (Ubuntu 22.04).

I installed pytorch in a conda virtual environment using the latest version:
conda install pytorch torchvision torchaudio pytorch-cuda=12.1 -c pytorch-nightly -c nvidia

And, when I try to run import pytorch I get the following error message:
ImportError: libcusparseLt.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

So, I checked checking inside /usr/local/cuda with find -name libcusparse* and I effectively don’t have that file.

./targets/x86_64-linux/lib/libcusparse.so.12.1.2.141
./targets/x86_64-linux/lib/libcusparse_static.a
./targets/x86_64-linux/lib/libcusparse.so
./targets/x86_64-linux/lib/stubs/libcusparse.so
./targets/x86_64-linux/lib/libcusparse.so.12

So my question is, should I install that file from the following url: cuSPARSELt Downloads | NVIDIA Developer ? Or is this an issue from pytorch? I ask this because I have another conda environment where I can actually run import torch which I installed the 2023-09-25 by checking the list of conda revisions, without issues. However, if I run torch.cuda.is_available() I get False. Which is again weird because the first week of this month (October 2023) I didn’t have this issue. The only changes I remember are a package I installed via pip like pylabel. And I updated conda recently.

Complementing even more, I just found another conda environment which has the following version of pytorch:
pytorch 2.2.0.dev20230913 py3.8_cuda12.1_cudnn8.9.2_0 pytorch-nightly

Which I installed the 2023-09-13, and when I run:

import torch
torch.cuda.is_available()

I get True. What’s causing this issue?

This week I did the same exercise and it’s working fine.
