cannot import name 'compute_relocation'

I'm now testing the install on linux.

I had errors with the submodules not downloading because of host key so I downloaded them manually;

cd submodules
git clone https://github.com/shakibakh/diff-gaussian-rasterization.git
git clone https://gitlab.inria.fr/bkerbl/simple-knn.git

cd submodules/diff-gaussian-rasterization/third_party
git clone https://github.com/g-truc/glm.git

I then was able to create and install the environment

running a training test I get the error;

  File "train.py", line 16, in <module>

ImportError: cannot import name 'compute_relocation' from 'diff_gaussian_rasterization' (/home/infinite/anaconda3/envs/3dgs_mcmc/lib/python3.7/site-packages/diff_gaussian_rasterization/__init__.py)

I mentioned on another issue that I got the same message on windows and did some modifications to fix it but ran into more errors because of python 3.7

I feel that manually downloading the the submodules may not be the correct way, any reason why the submodules are not working and what these other errors are?

I fixed my submodule download error by adding an SSH key to my github account.

This comment fixed my compute_relocation import error #4 (comment)
