uv actually handles thr issues described there very well (uv docs have have a page showing a few ways to do it). The issue for me is uv has massive amnesia about which one was selected and you end up trashing packages because of that. uv is very fast at thrashing though so it's not as bad as if poetry were thrashing.

I end up going to the torch website and they have a nice little UI I can click what I have and it gives me the pip line to use.

On nvidia jetson systems, I always end up compiling torchvision, while torch always comes as a wheel. It seems so random.
