So, are we going to keep making micromamba
and conda-standalone
with the older glibc versions? Otherwise that CONDA_EXEC call is going to crash without a useful message.
Note that i haven't made the latest the official release. So I'm going to hold off until we resolve this discussion

We can either do that, or add some bash code to find out about __glibc
and __osx
without conda in that PR. We can also add some error handling to the conda-standalone
crash saying something like "We couldn't identify your system requirements. A possible explanation is that you may be using an older GLIBC version, but we require >=2.17".
Let me know which one is preferred.

Ended up writing some code for this. Reviews welcome 🙏
I take it we are waiting for your hard work to get merged: https://github.com/conda-forge/constructor-feedstock/pull/80
including this message for general visibility about the process!
That's one blocker resolved, yes. Unfortunately there's another one in conda-standalone at https://github.com/conda/conda-standalone/pull/90. We need that one to make a release including https://github.com/conda/conda-standalone/pull/89.
It will be ready by EOD or Monday the latest.
Sorry about the delay. https://github.com/conda-forge/conda-standalone-feedstock/pull/79 is now merged so this should get unblocked briefly. We need to add the virtual_specs
config to our config. Opening a PR now.
I was hoping we could have "1 release" without any blackouts periods, so we can tell people that need to freeze to an older installer to use that.
is that still on the table?
We will need to comment out a couple things in the input file, but yes, we have time. We can release brownout-equipped release right after.
great! thanks.
In supporting people at my company i find that error messages need to have clear instructions with them.
You are encouraged to do X. But if you want, you can pin to Y and add to your technical debt.
is the kind of message I envision.
FYI, we just released a patch version for constructor
that should move #626 forward once the package is built and uploaded.
I noticed that we are documenting now our base system requirements.
constructor
right now won't do much to enforce it though. I've opened https://github.com/conda/constructor/pull/809 to deal with this upstream but it hasn't landed yet (needs review).When it does land, we should probably add this to
construct.yaml
so the installer fails to start:
