Yes, this is nice that we have pytorch in Fedora. Looking at the specfile...
USE_CUDA=OFF
USE_ROCM=OFF
Which does not align with:
%description
PyTorch is a Python package that provides two high-level features:
* Tensor computation (like NumPy) with strong GPU acceleration
GPU acceleration?
Indeed. We have ROCM in Fedora already:
$ sudo dnf list rocm\*devel

At least the OpenCL part works quite well for me.
[...]
pip install torch
python3
>>> import torch
>>> torch.__config__.show()
The config listed there should be compared with the config in the spec file to
get as close to the expected feature set as possible so that people can just
switch. This is a positive step and I would love to switch one day.
Good idea.
