For 2025-08, focused on stabilizing CUDA-related work within spack/spack-packages by fixing a runtime error in py-jaxlib when using custom CUDA installations. Delivered a fix that ensures the CUPTI library is located, added to LD_LIBRARY_PATH, and XLA_FLAGS is set to the CUDA data directory, improving compatibility and stability of CUDA workflows with non-standard installations. This reduces runtime failures and improves reliability for developers relying on custom CUDA setups.
