Details

I tried to install deepmd-kit using conda conda create -n deepmd deepmd-kit lammps horovod -c conda-forge And the message is

Channels:
 - conda-forge
 - defaults
Platform: linux-aarch64
Collecting package metadata (repodata.json): done
Solving environment: failed

PackagesNotFoundError: The following packages are not available from current channels:

  - lammps
  - horovod
  - deepmd-kit

Current channels:

  - https://conda.anaconda.org/conda-forge
  - defaults

To search for alternate channels that may provide the conda package you're
looking for, navigate to

    https://anaconda.org

and use the search bar at the top of the page.

I found there is only linux-64 not linux-aarch64. I am not sure if the error is caused by the platform. if so, could we add support on linux-aarch64

thanks. This is required by newest hpc in CSCS (https://www.cscs.ch/computers/decommissioned/toedi). Looking forward to the update. Our new project will start at this new hpc in October. The worst case would be compiling dpmd from scratch.

Hi, aarch64 is also required by the docker image. Does the docker iamge also suffer from the problem of upstream (tensorflow)? I only found x86 docker image for tensorflow in dockerhub (https://hub.docker.com/r/tensorflow/tensorflow/tags?page=2&page_size=&ordering=&name=)

Currently, we build docker images just using the offline installer, maintained at https://github.com/deepmd-kit-recipes/docker-images.

Hello, I checked the dockerfile. The offline installer only has linux x86_64.sh. How do you build the offline installer? Do we need to build an arm64 offline installer?

How do you build the offline installer?

The offline package is built at https://github.com/deepmd-kit-recipes/installer, which is a collection of conda packages.

Thank you. It seems everything goes back to the conda install deepmd-kit where we need the aarch64 for tensorflow. should fix the upstream problem first.
