ResolvePackageNotFound error in Ubuntu/Linux
Not sure if it's a PyPlot-specific problem (could be caused by PyCall.jl or matplotlib itself I suppose)
Upon a fresh install of the latest release of PyCall (setting ENV["PYTHON"]="" to use a separate Julia miniconda environment), it fails to install certain packages, including matplotlib. Trying to install PyPlot.jl (or even manually activating the environment and performing conda install matplotlib) returns the following error:
Solving environment: unsuccessful initial attempt using frozen solve. Retrying with flexible solve.
Solving environment: unsuccessful attempt using repodata from current_repodata.json, retrying with next repodata source.
ResolvePackageNotFound:
- conda==23.1.0
Reproducible across multiple Ubuntu machines running 18.04, 20.04, or 22.04
Yes, I was absolutely unable to register a package update on GitHub/Registrator because of this. My solution was install matplolib through Conda.pip and then Conda.add, before pointing PyCall to Conda's python. It works now, see here for my solution within a build script. This needs to remain an open issue IMHO.
Here is a reproducer using docker:
docker run -it julia:1.9 /bin/bash
julia --eval 'using Pkg; Pkg.add("PyPlot");'
julia --eval 'using PyPlot'
I am wondering if it also affects non-Linux systems.
Full session
$ docker run -it julia:1.9 /bin/bash

during initialization of module PyPlot
caused by: PyError (PyImport_ImportModule
The Python package matplotlib could not be imported by pyimport. Usually this means
that you did not install matplotlib in the Python version being used by PyCall.
PyCall is currently configured to use the Julia-specific Python distribution
installed by the Conda.jl package. To install the matplotlib module, you can
use `pyimport_conda("matplotlib", PKG)`, where PKG is the Anaconda
package that contains the module matplotlib, or alternatively you can use the
Conda package directly (via `using Conda` followed by `Conda.add` etcetera).
Alternatively, if you want to use a different Python distribution on your
system, such as a system-wide Python (as opposed to the Julia-specific Python),
you can re-configure PyCall with that Python. As explained in the PyCall
documentation, set ENV["PYTHON"] to the path/name of the python executable
you want to use, run Pkg.build("PyCall"), and re-launch Julia.

Other workarounds:
- first downgrading to conda==23.1.0, then installing matplotlib (which surprisingly installs conda 23.7.2)
- first install mamba, then install matplotlib using mamba.
As it is likely a conda problem, I posted this question of StackOverflow: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/76817732/installing-matplotlib-with-conda-fails-with-conda-exceptions-resolvepackagenotfo
