4 years ago @alexmyself HI, thanks for reporting this! Have you checked out cadquery 2.0 over at https://github.com/CadQuery/cadquery? It's newer, and i think has more stable conda packages.

4 years ago The version 2.0 is what i've followed, precisely:
-github of v2.0 as you suggested: https://github.com/CadQuery/cadquery -then the first link to the doc, at the top of the github page: https://cadquery.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ -then the link to installing cadquery: https://cadquery.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation.html
I've just installed the cq-editor, it works fine (...it starts and looks like "normal" at the instant, can't says it really "works fine" but installation went well and it seems to act like it should )
From my user point of view you should just state on the installing cadquery page: -install anaconda -launch anaconda navigator -make an environment with python 3.6 -open the terminal for the two commands: -- conda install -c conda-forge -c cadquery cadquery=2 -- conda install -c cadquery -c conda-forge cq-editor -start editor by this terminal: cq-editor
From my user point of view what is (..a bit) misleading: -@https://cadquery.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation.html: --Anaconda or Miniconda (Python 3.x editions), Python 3.x --> say python 3.6 ( as anaconda propose 3.8 for creating new environment, which looks likes "the good choice" ) --CadQuery requires PythonOCC and Python version 3.x --> says ..nothing, just not mention PythonOCC on installing page.. it is installed in a right way with your command and maybe provide problems if installed separately before cadquery.
Have I said thanks for cadquery? :)

4 years ago @alexmyself please post this on the CadQuery 2.x issue tracker since this is related to CQ 2.x and not CQ 1.x. We've migrated away from this repo.
The installation process as describe on this page:
https://cadquery.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation.html#installation
doesn't works, at least with fresh anaconda on a mac, but probably not only on mac, problems are dependencies versions oriented.
What works: -install anaconda via their installer: https://www.anaconda.com/products/individual -launch anaconda navigator --create an environment with python 3.6 ( superiors versions fails at installing cadquery ) --click on the arrow of this new environment to "open terminal" -paste in the opened terminal: conda install -c conda-forge -c cadquery cadquery=2
What doesn't works ( or have been met on my troubles path, consistency should be checked): -install on win 10 32bit (... ) -anaconda environment > python 3.6 -installation on the "base" (default) anaconda environment (python 3.7 atm) -installation of PythonOCC prior to cadquery (something like "ca-certificates" version became a problem).
Which error messages have been seen and totally disappeared once environment 3.6 has been used: -Solving environment: failed with initial frozen solve. Retrying with flexible solve. -Solving environment: failed with repodata from current_repodata.json, will retry with next repodata source. -Found conflicts! Looking for incompatible packages. -UnsatisfiableError: The following specifications were found to be incompatible with the existing python installation in your environment: -The following specifications were found to be incompatible with each other: -Package libcxx conflicts for:
Hopes this helps, thanks for cadquery! :)
