Unable to build on Windows and Ubuntu

[sktistakis]

Unfortunately I am not able to build the chamfer_distance.cuda on neither Windows 11 and Ubuntu 22.04 (same machine) when calling cd = load(name="cv" ...) for the first time. Both report similar error messages.

I use Python 3.10, PyTorch 1.11.0 with CUDA toolkit 11.6 on both Windows and Ubuntu.
I run this in a conda virtual environment.

I already tried this but it did not help.

Here is the Traceback from Ubuntu:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/sktis/anaconda3/envs/GrabNet/lib/python3.10/site-packages/torch/utils/cpp_extension.py", line 1740, in _run_ninja_build

    raise CalledProcessError(retcode, process.args,
subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command '['ninja', '-v']' returned non-zero exit status 1.

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

Ok, I was able to solve the issue by downgrading to gcc-10 from gcc-11 using those commands.

$ sudo apt install gcc-10 g++-10
$ export CC=/usr/bin/gcc-10
$ export CXX=/usr/bin/g++-10

This fixed the problem on Ubuntu but I have not tried on Windows yet.
