 |
|
| Is it possible to install multiple versions of CUDA on the same Gentoo machine? For example, install both CUDA 11 and 12 for building different pytorch extensions. |

| You can install multiple versions of a slotted package. I see no package named CUDA. Did you mean dev-util/nvidia-cuda-toolkit? If so, that does not appear to be slotted. |

Yes.
The CUDA versions supported by the nvidia-cuda-toolkit are very limited, and it would be best if someone has experience installing CUDA from nvidia runfile on Gentoo. |

What's the question here? The Gentoo ebuild is based on the NVIDIA binary distribution and really there is no other way.

Why would you want that?
What's the real issue you're trying to solve?

I am trying to build a pytorch extension that only works under CUDA 11, and I don't want to downgrade the system CUDA version |

Your quickest route is to downgrade, but nct 11 is already ~ keyworded and it's uncertain for how long it'll stay in tree. I'm not sure if slotting it is possible. It looks like it to my half-competent in that regard eye, but it might not be. Best way file a bug request for moving that extension to a newer version.
If you're feeling adventurous, you can try to install it in a custom location and use it from there.
Best Regards,
