Closes #6630

[conda-forge-admin]

Hi! This is the friendly automated conda-forge-linting service.

I just wanted to let you know that I linted all conda-recipes in your PR (recipe/meta.yaml) and found it was in an excellent condition.

[jakirkham]

As noted previously, this won't work for linux_ppc64le, which stops at CUDA 12.4. So that will need to be broken out

[h-vetinari]

Thanks for the PR. I'd still prefer a dedicated migration for this, but I guess we can bump and see as well 🤷

[hmaarrfk]

Did ppc get dropped from upstream?

[jakirkham]

Yes it was deprecated in CUDA 12.4 and removed in CUDA 12.5

Edit - Also linking this tracking issue: conda-forge/cuda-feedstock#27

It would be nice to point recipe maintainers towards the guide we wrote for CUDA recipe maintainers, specifically around CUDA Enhanced Compatibility so that packages can be backwards compatible (use a newer compiler to build but run with an older CUDA Toolkit). If we do end up rolling this back or adding a migrator, it would be good to link to this: https://github.com/conda-forge/cuda-feedstock/blob/main/recipe/doc/recipe_guide.md#cuda-enhanced-compatibility

Suggested change

	- 12.4 # [linux and ppc64le and os.environ.get("CF_CUDA_ENABLED", "False") == "True"]
	- 12.4 # [ppc64le and os.environ.get("CF_CUDA_ENABLED", "False") == "True"]

ppc64le implies Linux.

It's better to be explicit

[hmaarrfk]

Do we need to bump the cos image used for 12.6. I keep getting errors that imply that the wrong start is pulled in for 12.6 packages

[h-vetinari]

that the wrong start is pulled in for 12.6 packages

What do you mean by "start"? Some bits of the infra (esp. on aarch) already depend on glibc 2.28, but that's true even for the CUDA 12.0 bits. That will soon be solved by #6626, which is essentially ready to merge (though you could help in reviewing the announcement).
