Does this package work with Python 3.6?

I'm trying to install using conda and am receiving the following error:

UnsatisfiableError: The following specifications were found to be in conflict:
  - python 3.6*
  - rvlib -> python 3.5* -> xz 5.0.5

Hmm, I haven't seen this before, though I don't think I've used this library on python 3.6

It looks like the issue is with a package called xz. Have you researched anything about the xz package on Python 3.6? Maybe that would help?

BlackArbsCEO commented 6 years ago

Yes I looked into it, and interestingly enough my version of the package is:

xz                        5.2.3                         0    conda-forge

Does that mean rvlib is somehow hardcoded to work with an older version?

sglyon commented 6 years ago

I don't believe rvlib uses the xz package directly.

That makes things a little tricky to figure out how to work around this issue.

Were you able to see any discussion online about why xz insists on Python 3,5?

builds for 3.6+ are available on conda-forge
