pip metadata is not provided #35

Closed QuLogic closed 5 years ago

QuLogic commented 6 years ago

PyQt5 is now available on PyPI, so you can do pip install pyqt5. The conda package does not provide the necessary metadata for pip to realize that it is installed, so installing a package that requires it with pip install unnecessarily downloads pyqt5 from pypi. For example,

$ conda create -n test pyqt=5
$ conda activate test
$ pip install pyqt5

should not attempt to install pyqt5 again.

PRs are welcome. It shouldn't be that hard to come up with one.

Closing this b/c this is a deeper issue with conda and pip interoperability and beyond the scope of the pyqt feedstock. With that said a lot changed since the issue was opened and maybe this is no longer a problem.
