conda install failure

[jodyhey]

We are trying to install xpclr and several attempts in different environments returns the following (below) Unfortunately details are lacking. Are there particular dependencies ? We can set up a conda environment specifically for xpclr, if we know what needs to be there.

thanks J. Hey

It may be conflicting with packages already in your environment: perhaps try a new environment, ie:

conda deactivate conda create --name xpclr -c bioconda xpclr

I haven't updated the bioconda in a while though, so very possible it has broken somewhere!

[jodyhey]

Thanks unfortunately that fails as well (below). Any chance of an update?

conda create --name xpclr -c bioconda xpclr Collecting package metadata (current_repodata.json): done Solving environment: failed with repodata from current_repodata.json, will retry with next repodata source.

Build seems ok to me. I can create a new environment containing xpclr. Bioconda checks seem fine too. https://bioconda.github.io/recipes/xpclr/README.html

Can you post the conflicts you are getting?

[hardingnj]

Might be worth posting your conda version too.

[jodyhey]

I posted the text that came back, though it had little info about conflict. Not sure if there is a way to get more details.

I've tried it with conda version 4.8.3 and 4.9.2, both failed.

[hardingnj]

If you leave it to run, it will dump the failed dependencies.

Looks like it's something to do with h5py. I'll take a look- but nothing seems obvious to me currently.

so I tried making a new environment a different way, and this worked conda create -c bioconda -c conda-forge -n xpclr xpclr
