Research direction

Start by reproducing the installation with the package's CMake configuration and the linked LibTorch libraries. Inspect the CMake and macro definitions involved in the reported AT_ASSERT line, then confirm that configuration and the package build complete without the Error macro argument failure.

But after successful cmake, following error occured
Error: macro "Error" passed 4 arguments, but takes just 1
