[speech_recognition]'IOError: Cannot assign requested address'. Changing download-site in speech_recognition workload

The download site of openfst-1.6.7.tar.gz and boost_1_63_0.tar.gz may not be reach in ctcdecode for Chinese. It would throw error just like:

For Chinese users I suggest that you can change the file ~/speech_recognition/pytorch/docker/Dockerfile.gpu line59:

RUN git clone --recursive https://github.com/parlance/ctcdecode.git

to:

RUN git clone --recursive -b linrio-patch-1 https://github.com/linrio/ctcdecode.git

Thus you can download the openfst-1.6.7 and boost_1_63_0 reachablely and then complete installing ctcdecode, build-docker.

More info: branch linrio-patch-1in linrio/ctcdecode

Interesting, we're taking a look.

In an effort to clean up the git repo so we can maintain it better going forward, the MLPerf Training working group is closing out issues older than 2 years, since much has changed in the benchmark suite. If you think this issue is still relevant, please feel free to reopen. Even better, please come to the working group meeting to discuss your issue.
