Install libtorch version 1.8.1 on ubuntu 18

1

I was trying to install libtorch version 1.8.1 on ubuntu 18 following the following code:

git clone GitHub - pytorch/pytorch: Tensors and Dynamic neural networks in Python with strong GPU acceleration
cd pytorch/
git checkout v1.8.1

update submodule, this may take a while

git submodule update --init --recursive

change protobuf to v3.6.1

cd third_party/protobuf
git checkout v3.6.1
cd …/…

activate a conda virtual env with python3.8

conda activate py38
python setup.py install

sudo mkdir -p /opt/allride/third_party/libtorch
sudo chmod -R 755 /opt/allride
cp -r torch/lib /opt/allride/third_party/libtorch
cp -r torch/share /opt/allride/third_party/libtorch
cp -r torch/include /opt/allride/third_party/libtorch

echo “export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/allride/third_party/libtorch/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH” >> ~/.bashrc

Yet, I can execute the last two copy command. It told me that torch/share, torch/include directory can not be found.
Then,

~/pytorch/torch$ libtorch

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

I searched this error message online and it told me that one possible cause is because of the use of type in one self-defined module.

I do not know how to proceed. Any comments are greatly appreciated.
