Summary

  • Fixed missing system_type argument being passed to do_we_need_sudo() function in install_llama_cpp()
  • The system_type variable was already available from check_build_requirements() but wasn't being passed to the function

Problem

On Fedora/RHEL and other RPM-based systems, the do_we_need_sudo() function needs the system_type parameter to determine which package manager to use (yum/dnf vs apt-get). Without this argument, the function defaults to Debian-style commands which fail on non-Debian systems.

Changes

  • unsloth_zoo/llama_cpp.py: Pass system_type to do_we_need_sudo() call

Fixes #390

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

The do_we_need_sudo() function requires a system_type parameter to
determine the appropriate package manager for different Linux
distributions. The variable was already available from
check_build_requirements() but wasn't being passed.

Fixes unslothai#390

Summary of Changes

Hello @yurekami, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request rectifies a critical bug in the Llama.cpp installation process that prevented successful execution on certain Linux distributions. By correctly passing the system_type argument to the do_we_need_sudo function, the system can now accurately identify the appropriate package manager for sudo operations, thereby improving the robustness and compatibility of installations across diverse operating environments, particularly RPM-based systems.

Highlights

  • Bug Fix: Resolved an issue where the system_type argument was not being passed to the do_we_need_sudo() function within install_llama_cpp().
  • System Compatibility: This fix addresses installation failures on RPM-based systems (like Fedora/RHEL) by ensuring the correct package manager (yum/dnf instead of apt-get) is used when determining sudo requirements.

Code Review

This pull request addresses a bug where the system_type was not being passed to the do_we_need_sudo() function. This caused issues on RPM-based systems like Fedora/RHEL, as the function would default to using Debian-specific package manager commands. The fix correctly passes the system_type variable, which is already available, ensuring the right commands are used based on the detected Linux distribution. The change is correct and effectively resolves the reported issue.
