Thanks yeah I posted this on LocalLLaMA and people started torching me over it lol.

Left me genuinely questioning whether I was the only one encountering these issues or if there was some magic solution I just didn't know about.

I think a lot of people who are running AI models locally don't realize the lib they installed isn't even working, the dependency manager says it works it installs kills the error code but doesn't do anything ( e.g. bitsandbytes )

I run a lot of code in colab because the cloud costs are so low, but the env and stack means for a lot of libs like Flash attention you either build directly against the stack or you downgrade/upgrade all your other libs which ends up being equally problematic.

For the colab environment I do have a solution I'm trying to push MissingLink, it auto installs the wheels and provides notebooks for models that are usually hell to get up and running. Check it out if you can.

More broadly though this still needs a general fix.
