Ah, presumably what you said is true. As we have to provide updates
through the backports channel, I think it's not necessary for us to rush
a cuda version of pytorch ... let's pay attention to consolidating the
quality of the existing packages for the bullseye release as proposed at
the beginning.
Not rushing for the thing, at least, make the end of the year more
comfortable to me.

I'm facing exactly these issues. There are 8 RTX3090 cards in one of the
servers in my lab, but the nvidia LTS driver looks too buggy. Training
program in multi-process manner (distributed data parallel) will
immediately hang. I guess something is wrong in the driver/nccl or
alike. The same program works nicely on RTX2080Ti *8.
