@MissTife this is actually a pretty cool implementation. Were you able to test this?
@DhanshreeA Thank you ma. Yes I was able to test it and the installation now gets interrupted by pressing ctrl +c and the installation did not continue.
Thank you for taking your time to contribute to Ersilia, just a few checks before we proceed

Description This pull request addresses the issue where pressing CTRL + C does not terminate the environment installation process when using conda. Each conda installation starts a new process, leading to multiple processes running even after a keyboard interrupt. The solution implements a signal handler to properly catch the interrupt signal and terminate all running conda installation processes.
Changes to be made
Added a signal handler to capture SIGINT (keyboard interrupt) and set a flag to terminate ongoing installation processes. Modified the _install_packages method to periodically check for this termination flag and terminate all subprocesses when CTRL + C is pressed. Included logging statements to inform the user when the installation process is terminated due to an interrupt. Status Ready for review
