Python Version - Backwards Version Compatibility Thought

Apologize as a nube and Not sure what category this belongs under but my first exposure torch has been a burdensome one . . . Regardless as complaining is pointless on the quest to a solution. . .

Can some help advise as to the best route forward in addressing this ideally one that doesn’t require me to install an older version of python ?

I am getting this error:

ERROR: Ignored the following versions that require a different python version: 1.21.2 Requires-Python >=3.7,<3.11; 1.21.3 Requires-Python >=3.7,<3.11; 1.21.4 Requires-Python >=3.7,<3.11; 1.21.5 Requires-Python >=3.7,<3.11; 1.21.6 Requires-Python >=3.7,<3.11

I don’t know which Python version you are using but the binaries should are available for Python 3.8 - 3.12 (at least for Linux). If you are using an older or newer Python version you could try to build PyTorch from source using it as it seems you don’t want to change your Python version for some reason.
