Make plugin idempotent
Repeated runs fail with [conda/stderr] mkdir: cannot create directory ‘_temp_home’: File exists . How do you develop this interactively (trial and error during development of an AppImage)?
Similar,
Running process: /home/me/linuxdeploy-plugin-conda.sh --appdir AppDir
[conda/stdout] Error: directory exists: AppDir/usr/conda
ERROR: Failed to run plugin: conda (exit code: 1)
No, #10 is about not downloading repeatedly. This is about not erroring when running repeatedly.
#10 explains why it's necessary to error out to prevent running more than once.
Then this is my feature request to make it so that one can run multiple times, like linuxdeployqt. It is necessary for efficient trial-and-error development.
Same as https://github.com/linuxdeploy/linuxdeploy-plugin-conda/issues/10#issuecomment-494590494. Sure, would be nice to have, but implies a lot of work to make this reliable. Conda's installer doesn't support it properly.
Also: linuxdeploy can run multiple times, only this plugin can't/won't. As stated in #10, you can just omit --plugin conda on subsequent runs.
This plugin should be idempotent with some exceptions.
- subsequent runs should recognize existing conda environment and not recreate the environment from scratch
- installation of dependencies should be called normally, and should not (but that's not a hard requirement) update anything already installed
