I am trying to build an docker image with a VPI install (from VPI - Vision Programming Interface: Install VPI in Docker) but during the build process I get the following error:

 => ERROR [12/16] RUN dpkg --configure pva-allow-2                                                                               0.5s

and my dockerfile is the following:

FROM nvcr.io/nvidia/l4t-ml:r36.2.0-py3

WORKDIR /usr/src/app
ENV PYTHONPATH=/usr/src/app

Hi,

Could you try with the base image that was built for r36.4 BSP?

For example nvcr.io/nvidia/12.6.11-devel:12.6.11-devel-aarch64-ubuntu22.04

Thanks.

Hi,
Thank you very much for your help!
I tested around and the image nvcr.io/nvidia/l4t-jetpack:r36.4.0 worked for my needs.

For my own future reference, where can I find information on which image might support a needed package?

Thanks

Hi,

Usually, you can find the l4t base image by searching the l4t keyword.

Then you will need to find one that is built with the same BSP to avoid the compatibility issue.
For example: l4t-jetpack:r36.4.0 for JetPack 6.2/6.1.

Thanks.
