Obsolete anaconda channel vs conda-forge channel #4

Open jhillairet opened 4 months ago

jhillairet commented 4 months ago

I’m the main developer of a this package which is on conda-forge since a few years now.

However, years ago, before using the conda-forge channel, some package versions have been uploaded on the anaconda channel (not conda-forge).

The issue is that some new users, who do not pay attention to the installation instructions, are installing the package via conda install XXX instead of conda install -c conda-forge XXX, and are installing obsolete versions...

Is there any way to suppress the packages on the anaconda channel so that we have only the conda-forge channel?

Bumping Anaconda staff for help! (sorry!) @marcoesters @SC426 @mingwandroid @jezdez

@jhillairet Thanks for opening the ticket, I've pinged the internal packaging team at Anaconda about it.

Dear @jezdez , any news from your colleagues ?

@jhillairet I know that @cbouss has added it to the backlog to update, we don't really have a policy to remove packages as-is sadly.
