Hi!

cudatoolkit package at https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/cudatoolkit is very old. How is it possible to update it till the latest version = 12.2.0?

Thanks!

Thanks Stanislav! 🙏

Sorry no one saw this 😢

This sort of thing is best raised on the conda-forge feedstock (as this is referencing conda-forge). When looking for a feedstock from a package, conda-forge provides this search page. In this particular case it is the cudatoolkit-feedstock. So would have raised an issue there

However the CUDA 12 transition in conda-forge, involved a complete reworking of the conda-forge packages. More details can be found in this 2023 SciPy talk as well as this CUDA 12 bringup issue ( https://github.com/conda-forge/conda-forge.github.io/issues/1963 )

The short summary is with CUDA 12 conda-forge supplies the full CUDA Toolkit with compilers, debuggers, profilers, libraries, headers, etc. This provides much more than what was available in previous releases. These are also added as totally new packages

Meanwhile the cudatoolkit package, which supplied a handful of redistributable libraries, is being sunset. It will continue to be maintained for CUDA 11 and earlier until support for them is dropped

We have added CUDA 12.2 as well as several other minor versions to conda-forge. The latest version is CUDA 12.5, which just finished uploading today ( https://github.com/conda-forge/cuda-feedstock/issues/29 )

Please let us know if you have any other questions
