I remember setting this up quite some time ago, but now I have a new machine running F38. I can find some documentation for the old very tedious procedure to get this to work; it still does work on an older machine where I had done this. But I notice now that Fedora might already have some of the r

So, it turns out that there is no tensorflow for Python 3.12, which is what is shipped out with F39. I tried to downgrade my python using sudo dnf downgrade python --releasever=38 that downgrades a huge bunch of things, including important components like rpm. However, dnf install/update pretty
