No win-64 gdsctools on bioconda? #174

Open pgreninger opened 6 years ago

pgreninger commented 6 years ago

I followed the conda installation instructions and received an error: package missing in curent win-64 channels: -gdsctools Searching conda for gdsctools returns bioconda/gdsctools for platforms linux-64 and osx-64 but no win-64.

I'm not sure if other Windows users have experienced the same problem but pip install gdsctools choked on numpy, scipy and statsmodels installations. After several false starts I used conda to install numpy, scipy and statsmodels then pip to install gdsctools.

GDSCTools is available on bioconda but the anaconda framework only supports linux and macosx hence the first error (package missing in current win-64). Consequently, windows users have to install GDSCTools using the standard pip command.

I believe that you hybrid method (install gdsctools dependencies) and then gdsctools from pip is the correct way to proceed indeed.
