Latest release not in conda?

[Gabriel-p]

Describe the bug I can no install the latest release using conda

To Reproduce The latest release in https://anaconda.org/glueviz/glueviz is almost a year old (1.2.0), even though there is a release from two months ago (1.5.0). Even worse, when I try to install the package I get version 1.0.0 (or 1.0.1?)

The problem seems to be that the Python version I'm using is too new. But this only addresses why I'm not getting v1.2.0, there's still the issue that the glueviz channel in Anaconda needs updating.

[dhomeier]

@pllim you mentioned that the description should be pulled from https://github.com/conda-forge/glue-core-feedstock/blob/f6c13ce840345640ed451766ca20694e6598a450/recipe/meta.yaml#L10-L11 which indeed points to the correct source package for 1.5.0 – any idea why conda would still not find it?

[pllim]

Does your glueviz channel grab automatically from conda-forge ? Why do you have your own channel?

[dhomeier]

Don't know, maybe historical reasons when conda-forge did not get all the required packages? But conda install -c conda-forge glue-core even with Python3.9 only gives me 1.0.1 as well, which is from

glue-core pkgs/main/noarch::glue-core-1.0.1-pyhd3eb1b0_1

maybe this is an osx-arm64-specific issue in my case.

[pllim]

You can try ping the conda-forge people on your recipe.

I made some more tests under macOS and found that the major issue here is indeed running natively on arm64. Running under Rosetta as x86_64 I am able in an Anaconda3 env, as well as with new Miniforge and Mambaforge installations, to install glue-viz with glue-core 1.5.0, both for Python 3.9 and 3.10, but only using the default or conda-forge channels. conda install -c glueviz --update-all glueviz apparently still pulls most of the packages from conda-forge but is first finding glue-core 1.2.2 in glueviz`, like

glib-tools conda-forge/osx-64::glib-tools-2.72.1-h2292cb8_0 glue-core glueviz/osx-64::glue-core-1.2.2-py39h6e9494a_0 glue-vispy-viewers glueviz/noarch::glue-vispy-viewers-1.0.5-py_1 glueviz glueviz/osx-64::glueviz-1.2.0-py39h6e9494a_0

As osx-arm64 is still considered somewhat experimental and unsupported, I guess there is no immediate remedy to that, although I can get a fully working mamba installation of almost all dependencies and pip-install the arm64 glueviz packages, of course performing much better than the x86_64 versions.

On other platforms it seems the best solution for the moment is indeed to install from conda-forge instead. @Gabriel-p could you test if conda install -c conda-forge --update-all glueviz works for installing the current versions, and otherwise try to update your Anaconda or Miniconda installation?

[dhomeier]

The osx-arm64 distribution has been fixed in conda-forge/glue-core-feedstock#53; don't know if the issues on Linux can still be reproduced.
