Request for Dropbox 11.x for Windows on Conda

Open kkwaiser opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

Can you provide an 11.x version of the Dropbox SDK via the Anaconda package manager? The primary Conda package channels show only Dropbox 10.x to be available on anaconda and conda-forge.

While there is an 11.25 version on conda-forge, I can't get it to install with conda. The 10.x version in the Anaconda channel installs without issu. In my experience, the Conda environment fails with conflicts even when only Dropbox 11.x and Python are the required dependencies. Is the version listed on conda-forge really compatible with Windows, Mac and Linux?

Versions

  • What version of the SDK are you using? Currently only 10.x installs.
  • What version of the language are you using? Python 3.8
  • What platform are you using? (if applicable) Windows

Thanks for the post! Right now the team isn't officially supporting this library on conda, but I'll pass this along as a request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though.

Thanks. It might be better to remove the packages from those channels then. If I had known they were unsupported I would have fallen back to a pip install many hours ago.

Reopening this issue. The request now is for the Dropbox team to either remove Dropbox from the Anaconda and Conda-Forge channels or maintain the distributions. Let me know if you want the OP and title updated to reflect this.

Thanks for the note! I'll bring this up with the team.
