Setting up source code for development contribution error

1

I am currently trying to setup PyTorch on my local machine to develop locally for contribution to the project. I have an Anaconda environment setup and other recommended dependencies but when I run the command “Python3 setup.py develop” it produces too many errors and does not complete. I have provided the end of the snippet from the command line. Help would be greatly appreciated.

The end of the error message is usually not helpful as the initial error would trigger these, so check the first failure and post it here.

This is the first error that is generated:

Your system protoc might be incompatible and you could use BUILD_CUSTOM_PROTOBUF=ON to build with the protobuf from third_party/protobuf.
