It would be nice if I could install spyder and pyside6 but not pyqt. One way to allow this would be to change the current spyder recipe into a spyder-base, remove pyqt as a requirement, and make a new spyder recipe that depends on spyder-base and pyqt. This is backward compatible with what people probably expect conda install spyder to do, but would allow others to do conda install spyder-base pyside6 and have a working Spyder (I think!).
