Reproduction

1. What command or script did you run?

   pip install -e .

   Environment

2. Please run python mmdet3d/utils/collect_env.py to collect necessary environment infomation and paste it here. Unable to run as I cannot install the repo

3. You may add addition that may be helpful for locating the problem, such as

   • How you installed PyTorch [e.g., pip, conda, source]
   • conda install pytorch==1.6.0 torchvision==0.7.0 cudatoolkit=10.1 -c pytorch
   • Other environment variables that may be related (such as $PATH, $LD_LIBRARY_PATH, $PYTHONPATH, etc.)

Bug fix If you have already identified the reason, you can provide the information here. If you are willing to create a PR to fix it, please also leave a comment here and that would be much appreciated!

This was an issue with my ubuntu permissions. I had cloned the TransFusion repo with root user and attempted to install it with another user leading to conflicts with the permissions. To solve this, I deleted the repo and cloned it again (with my own user this time).
