What version of GCC do I need?

[JustCunn]

Just a quick question, what version(s) of gcc does OpenNMT-py accept and use? I'm having trouble with v8.2.0.

Not sure this is an OpenNMT-py issue per se.
You probably have some issues with your python or torch setup.

@francoishernandez Oh sorry, I wasn't too sure about what was causing it or familiar with gcc/the error message I got libgcc_s.so.1 must be installed for pthread_cancel. I have a StackOverflow question here about it with more detail if you think you could help in any way, it would be much appreciated. Thanks for letting me know though.

There might be an issue with the last version(s) of pytorch, or with your setup.
What you're mentioning very much looks like this issue: pytorch/pytorch#41661

Maybe you could try with an OpenNMT-py version < 1.2.0 and a torch==1.4.0 for instance.
Doesn't solve the issue but probably fine as a temporary workaround.
