Hi everyone, I try to install tikzplotlib in my anaconda3 base environment (with python 3.8). I have tried both approaches described here. Both approaches, however, do not work and yield:

(base) user@schleppi:~$ conda install -c conda-forge tikzplotlib Collecting package metadata (current_repodata.json): done Solving environment: failed with initial frozen solve. Retrying with flexible solve. Solving environment: failed with repodata from current_repodata.json, will retry with next repodata source.

The installation in another environment works. Unfortunately, I need tikzplotlib in the base environment because I like to use it with Julia.

Is there a fix or a workaround? Thank you in advance, mike
