Installation error rleated to Pytorch

1

i have been trying to install the fastai library using pip install git+https://github.com/fastai/fastai.git . The installation process gave the following error messages. Even I tried to install torch first, and then run the above git command again, the same error messages still appear. How to solve this problem. Thanks.

I’m not familiar with the fastai installation, but somehow PyTorch 0.1.2 is cached and being used.
Could you try to ignore the cache with:

pip install git+https://github.com/fastai/fastai.git --no-cache-dir

I am also encountering same issue. --no-cache-dir did not solved my problem. Do you have any other suggestion?

As I’m really not familiar with the fastai wrapper, maybe @jphoward might give you some advice.

Thank you for quick response. I hope @jphoward may find some time for this.
