NVIDIA TX2+jetpack 5+Ubuntu20.4：No matching distribution found for bitsandbytes==0.43.0 about bitsandbytes

Hi @qxpBlog,

bitsandbytes is not currently built with support for aarch64 platforms. Releases prior to 0.43.0 to PyPI were tagged as supporting all platforms, but moving forward the wheels are tagged appropriately for the platforms they support. As of right now, that is just Windows and Linux on x86-64.

You can follow #997 for more information on plans to support additional platforms.

嗨，

bitsandbytes当前不支持 aarch64 平台。PyPI 的 0.43.0 之前的版本被标记为支持所有平台，但今后轮子会针对它们支持的平台进行适当的标记。截至目前，这只是 x86-64 上的 Windows 和 Linux。

您可以关注 #997 以获取有关支持其他平台的计划的更多信息。

thanks for your help.

I had the same issue of bitandbytes 0.42.0 being available, but not 0.43+ on RHEL 7 (centOS 7 and other older distros should also be affected):

The pip release of bitsandbytes 0.43.0+ requires glibc 0.24+, while some older distros don't have it. You can verify by running: ldd --version

If you run into this issue, you can either use the conda-forge instead (supports glibc 2.17+) or build from source.
