This error looks like it is saying a previous attempt aborted, and it needs you to clean up some file that was only partly downloaded.
Edit: The "please wait" makes me think I would try again in a couple hours.
So try again... in a couple of hours...
Why would that make a difference? It's a local model right?
If it is local only, then waiting probably won't help.
Another thought for you: pip behaves much better inside a virtual environment - using the Python
venvmodule, oruv.The instructions you have shared so far look more compatible with
venv.I don't understand what venv is or why this would work better. Will this make the compatibility issues go away? I could also just create a virtual Ubuntu environment that's fresh if that would be easier and try to give that environment access to my GPU but I don't know if that would work.
Venv is a Python module that helps isolate sets of Python modules from the system installed Python version.
No guarantees, but it often does.
I'm not sure either. But you've got the idea. Python packages install better when they're allowed to exist separately from the underlying operating system.
