Upgrading Jetpack

Hi,

I was wondering if the Jetpack sdk’s could be upgraded without any compatibility issues. For example, recently OpenCV released the new 4.3 version, could I upgrade it on my Jetson Nano? What about upgrading to TensorRT 7?

Thank you for your time

Hi @FelipeVW, you should be able to upgrade to newer OpenCV version by compiling it from source, yes. We don’t make special modifications in the OpenCV packages included with JetPack.

You can’t upgrade TensorRT version independently of JetPack, as it has underlying dependencies on the cuDNN, CUDA, and L4T driver versions. The aarch64 packages for Jetson are also only available through JetPack. However we will be releasing an update for JetPack soon that includes support for TensorRT 7.
