I would like to request to support more installation methods.
I don't use docker, so according to https://rapids.ai/start.html I have two other methods left: conda and build from source.
I would prefer to avoid conda due to September's change to their terms of use.
So I am left with building from source, which is no fun.
It would be great if there would be other methods, for example
virtualenv (virtualenv works pretty well for me so far)In the past there was pip but support for it was dropped, so probably it is still not an option.
@jangorecki the change of terms to conda's service only applies to the defaults channel in conda, it does not apply to the conda-forge, or rapidsai channels. We'll be confirming and removing the defaults channel from our installation instructions in the near future as we don't depend on anything in defaults directly.
This blogpost from conda-forge should clear things up regarding the change in the ToS and conda-forge package hosting:

I've also tested using rapids _without_ defaults and things worked without issue
