I would like to install NVIDIA Nsight Eclipse Edition on Ubuntu without installing unneeded dependencies from the CUDA toolkit.
I know that nsight uses nvvc and some other libraries from the toolkit, but would that be possible to have a minimal copy of nsight without having to duplicate ALL of the cuda system repository ?
If you are on Ubuntu you can install it like sudo apt-get install nvidia-nsight and I think this gives you just nsight eclipse edition.
Another approach would be to take a copy of nsight from a full cuda install and then uninstall cuda. I just looked under /usr/local/cuda/libnsight and this looks like a full eclipse install folder. Maybe just copy this directory to somewhere else, and remove /usr/local/cuda.
