Description

📚 Documentation

Looks like there are several typos in pytorch.github.io/_get_started/previous-versions.md regarding conda installs

While 1.10.1 and 1.10.0 have been compiled against Cuda 11.1 and 11.3 in the conda-forge pytorch channel Versions 1.9.1, 1.9.0, and 1.8.1 are only compiled against cuda 11.1

Either the following three sections need to be updated to require cudatoolkit=11.1 not cudatoolkit=11.3
https://pytorch.org/get-started/previous-versions/#linux-and-windows-4
https://pytorch.org/get-started/previous-versions/#linux-and-windows-6
https://pytorch.org/get-started/previous-versions/#linux-and-windows-8

or the additional packages need to uploaded to the conda-forge pytorch channel

I verified the available packages for conda via
https://anaconda.org/pytorch/pytorch/files?version=1.9.1
https://anaconda.org/pytorch/pytorch/files?version=1.9.0
https://anaconda.org/pytorch/pytorch/files?version=1.8.1

Thanks for all the hard work building great tools and keeping the documentation current...

Research direction

Open _get_started/previous-versions.md and inspect the conda install sections linked for versions 1.9.1, 1.9.0, and 1.8.1. Verify the available packages using the referenced Anaconda version pages, then confirm whether the documentation or package availability needs updating. Done means the commands match the available CUDA builds or the required packages are available.
