| + | |||
| + | Even when using a proper ''.condarc'' in order to get packages coming only from //conda-forge//, ''conda install'' may fail to solve the dependencies after meditating during an enormous time, when we specify **complex environments**. Using CDAT as a base environment, and adding a lot of extra packages is a complex environment. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The only solution seems to replace ''conda'' with [[https://github.com/mamba-org/mamba|mamba]], a reimplementation of the conda package manager in C++ ([[https://wolfv.medium.com/making-conda-fast-again-4da4debfb3b7|Making conda fast again]]) | ||
