Some context please. What's your OS, what's your CPU etc. etc. Just an output message like that helps me not at all.

And are you installing or running an update?

It would make my life a lot easier if in future, you provided this kind of information rather than me having to probe for it. Also no need to @ me in every message.

Ultimately, that file exists, so...

Updating.

You're right, being the pro I am - I should know better. I'll refrain from both - @ and sending request for information without a minimum of few leads.

My question was merely - "what's going on" - but I do thank you for taking it a lot of steps farther. I'll look into the link you have provided.

thx

Ok, I suspect what is happening is that pip cannot install nvidia-ml-py during an update, due the pre-existance of nvidia-ml-py3.

In this case, you can ignore the warning. It is not important. I will look at steps to rectify in future. As long as there is a version of one of these packages on the system, you will not run into issues.

Some background: I have had to host my own version of nvidia-ml-py3 for reasons. Nvidia recently updated their own nvidia-ml-py to actually work with Python3, so I switched out the requirement so that I can stop relying on my self-hosted version. Evidently they do not appear to be able to co-exist.
