3. Package contents

Note

There is an enable script (enable) in the Poplar SDK directory. This can be sourced from both Bash and Zsh. It sources the appropriate enable.sh or enable.zsh for both Poplar and PopART to set all the necessary environment variables (for example, PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, PYTHON_PATH). It also adds TensorFlow Serving to the PATH environment variable.

For example:

$ cd poplar_sdk-ubuntu_18_04-2.6.0+1038-2c21fd81f0/
$ source enable

Note

The Horovod wheel (for use with PopART applications) is now deprecated and will be removed in a future release.

The downloaded Poplar SDK 2.6.0 will contain the following packages for each supported operating system:

• Table 3.1 Ubuntu 18.04

• Table 3.2 Ubuntu 20.04

• Table 3.3 CentOS 7.6

• Table 3.4 Debian 10
