Download pre-compiled binaries libtensorflow.so and libtensorflow_framework.so

Question

Is there any place where I can download the pre-compiled binaries of TensorFlow for MAC without cloning the tensorflow repository and manually build the binaries of a specific version on my own ? I need the version 1.8.0. I try to use pip install --upgrade tensorflow but I got the version 1.7.0 and by the way pip retrieve just the libtensorflow_framework.so binaries, I need also the libtensorflow.so binaries

Answer copied in from comments:

I suppose they haven't released the mac binaries yet, but you could try pip install tensorflow==1.8, that's how you would install a specific version of TF (usually used for older versions). I guess it won't work if they haven't released the mac build yet, but it's worth mentioning.

How to download previous version of tensorflow?

And as Luca found the release condidate is available on mac and this works:

pip install tensorflow==1.8.0rc0

Do note that there may be differences between the release candiate and the final release version.
