3 years ago anaconda-project is a command-line tool for capturing reproducible projects; it is not "anaconda" in general. For issues with the Anaconda Distribution, see. https://github.com/ContinuumIO/anaconda-issues .
Anaconda3-2020.11 and Miniconda Latest version downloaded 24th March. Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS (Focal Fossa)
A fresh Anaconda Environment should work without the following:
Collecting package metadata (current_repodata.json): done Solving environment: failed with repodata from current_repodata.json, will retry with next repodata source. Collecting package metadata (repodata.json): done Solving environment: /
(This solving environment remains for 10 minutes+).
Anaconda is rendered unusable.
Relevant configuration files
Complete, minimal, self-contained example code that reproduces the issue
Installation For x86 systems.
In your browser, download the Anaconda installer for Linux.
RECOMMENDED: Verify data integrity with SHA-256. For more information on hashes, see What about cryptographic hash verification?
Open a terminal and run the following:
sha256sum /path/filename Enter the following to install Anaconda for Python 3.7:
bash ~/Downloads/Anaconda3-2020.02-Linux-x86_64.sh OR Enter the following to install Anaconda for Python 2.7:
bash ~/Downloads/Anaconda2-2019.10-Linux-x86_64.sh Note
Include the bash command regardless of whether or not you are using Bash shell.
Note
If you did not download to your Downloads directory, replace ~/Downloads/ with the path to the file you downloaded.
The installer prompts “In order to continue the installation process, please review the license agreement.” Click Enter to view license terms.
Scroll to the bottom of the license terms and enter “Yes” to agree.
The installer prompts you to click Enter to accept the default install location, CTRL-C to cancel the installation, or specify an alternate installation directory. If you accept the default install location, the installer displays “PREFIX=/home//anaconda<2 or 3>” and continues the installation. It may take a few minutes to complete.
Note
We recommend you accept the default install location. Do not choose the path as /usr for the Anaconda/Miniconda installation.
The installer prompts “Do you wish the installer to initialize Anaconda3 by running conda init?” We recommend “yes”.
Note
If you enter “no”, then conda will not modify your shell scripts at all. In order to initialize after the installation process is done, first run source/bin/activate and then run conda init. See FAQ.
The installer finishes and displays “Thank you for installing Anaconda<2 or 3>!”
The installer provides a link to install PyCharm for Anaconda at https://www.anaconda.com/pycharm.
Close and open your terminal window for the installation to take effect, or you can enter the command source ~/.bashrc.
To control whether or not each shell session has the base environment activated or not, run conda config --set auto_activate_base False or True. To run conda from anywhere without having the base environment activated by default, use conda config --set auto_activate_base False. This only works if you have run conda init first.
Note
conda init is available in conda versions 4.6.12 and later.
Verify your installation.
Note
If you install multiple versions of Anaconda, the system defaults to the most current version as long as you haven’t altered the default install path.
