Problem when instaling with pip

[tammy3107]

when I try to run the command :

pip3 install -U MinkowskiEngine

I get this error:-

Defaulting to user installation because normal site-packages is not writeable Collecting MinkowskiEngine Using cached MinkowskiEngine-0.5.4.tar.gz (246 kB) Preparing metadata (setup.py) ... error error: subprocess-exited-with-error

    `numpy.distutils` is deprecated since NumPy 1.23.0, as a result
    of the deprecation of `distutils` itself. It will be removed for

    It is recommended to use `setuptools < 60.0` for those Python versions.

Try to install cuda in conda (choose the right cuda version).

conda install cuda -c nvidia/label/cuda-11.3.0

nvcc --version # validate
