When running the below code segment

from nemo.collections.nlp.parts.megatron_trainer_builder import MegatronLMPPTrainerBuilder
from nemo.utils.exp_manager import exp_manager

trainer = MegatronLMPPTrainerBuilder(cfg).create_trainer()
exp_manager(trainer, cfg.exp_manager)

I am getting the error

ImportError: Apex was not found. Please see the NeMo README for installation instructions: https://github.com/NVIDIA/NeMo#megatron-gpt.

So as per the official documentation when I try to install Apex,

git clone https://github.com/NVIDIA/apex.git
cd apex
git checkout b496d85fb88a801d8e680872a12822de310951fd
pip install -v --no-build-isolation --disable-pip-version-check --no-cache-dir --config-settings "--build-option=--cpp_ext --cuda_ext --fast_layer_norm --distributed_adam --deprecated_fused_adam" ./

this installation raises the given error
