Problem
The triton Docker build was failing with the following error:
This occurred during the test installation step where
uv pip installanduv pip showwere being used to verify the built triton wheel.Solution
Added the
--systemflag to bothuv pipcommands in the Dockerfile. Theuvpackage manager requires this flag when installing packages into the system Python environment (as opposed to a virtual environment), which is the standard setup in Docker containers.Changes
Updated
/Dockerfiles/l4t-jetpack-triton.Dockerfile:uv pip install→uv pip install --systemuv pip show→uv pip show --systemThis allows the Docker build to successfully install and verify the triton wheel without requiring a virtual environment to be created first.
Testing
