A number of packages in defaults
as well as other large community maintained channels like conda-forge
and bioconda
have packages which have conflicting paths. Setting path_conflict
to prevent
will cause these packages to un-installable. You can set the configuration value to warn
so that conflicts show a warning when a path conflict is detected.
Hi there, thank you for your contribution to Conda!

In #4119
path_conflict
was added with default ofclobber
and @kalefranz said the plan was for 4.5 to change the default to prevent.Somehow, I thought this already happened but looking at
conda config --show
in my fresh 4.7.5 install says the default is stillclobber
.Are you guys still planning to switch the default to
prevent
? Is there any downside to setting it toprevent
in my .condarc?
