cuda_compiler_version missing is blocking staged-recipes

[beckermr]

We are still seeing this even after the fix from @isuruf.

This looks like a conda-build bug

I've added a lot of selectors to avoid trying to use cuda_compiler_version in those recipes. I'm going to remove them from staging so that other recipes can be processed, and I will open a new PR for them.

Might be this bug: conda/conda-build#5458. The fix is unreleased.

Could try the following approach:

Define a fallback for version: Adding this to line 2 {% set version = version|default("") %}

[carterbox]

It works to add near the top of the recipe.

{% set cuda_compiler_version = cuda_compiler_version|default("None") %}

This is now in conda-build 24.9.0

In the few cases I've tested this, it appears to be fixing past issues. Though please let me know what you find from testing

Is there anything still left to do here? Or should we close?
