Incapable of running btcli run --cuda on WSL ubuntu #897

Describe the bug
I have followed the bittensor installation guide verbatim on a Windows machine running WSL.

Everything was running perfectly, returning "working" results, up until I was asked to run btcli run --cuda to run bittensor on my GPU.

The initial errors I received had to do with cubit not being found as a dependency (patebin here), so I ended up installing it from source in the /.bittensor directory and pip installing it accordingly. I made some progress, but after running the btcli command with the cuda flag, I continued to receive stack traces telling me that a cubit.pyx file was not being found in my home directory. After copying the same file from the cubit repository I cloned earlier to my home directory, I've hit a wall and a stack trace I can't seem to route around.

This is where I've landed:

  1. Follow the installation guide verbatim
  2. Run into errors after running btcli run --cuda
