joeyNMT 1.1/Google Colab - uses device:cpu instead of GPU

Problem When training using Masakhane custom data notebook, and pip installing joeyNMT, !cd joeynmt; python3 -m joeynmt train configs/transformer_$src$tgt.yaml uses CPU instead of GPU.

This occurs if I use version 1.1, but NOT if I pip install 1.0 specifically.

• If I use joeynmt==1.0 when pip installing, I get device:cuda
• If I use joeynmt when pip installing, it installs 1.1, and I get device:cpu

System (please complete the following information):

• Google Colab, https://github.com/masakhane-io/masakhane-mt/blob/master/starter_notebook-custom-data.ipynb
• joeyNMT pip installed

There is a deprecation warning about a specific class in torchtext:

/net/cephfs/scratch/mathmu/amit/venvs/joey3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/torchtext/data/field.py:150: UserWarning: Field class will be retired in the 0.8.0 release and moved to torchtext.legacy. Please see 0.7.0 release notes for further information.
  warnings.warn('{} class will be retired in the 0.8.0 release and moved to torchtext.legacy. Please see 0.7.0 release notes for further information.'.format(self.__class__.__name__), UserWarning)

Is this perhaps a problem when updating the requirements to torchtext==0.8.1 ?

same issue! It has something to do with the torch version I believe but not sure yet
