Can't install with conda on Windows due to "incompatibility" with 0 other packages #121

When following the installation instructions in my Anaconda3 prompt, I run across the following error:

>conda install pyseer
Collecting package metadata (current_repodata.json): done
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.

failed

UnsatisfiableError: The following specifications were found to be incompatible with each other:

Output in format: Requested package -> Available versions

The message ends there, though - there are no actual incompatible packages listed. Is this a known problem with pyseer?

I'm running Windows 10, with the following versions of anaconda and python:

>conda list anaconda
# packages in environment at C:\Users\Daniel\Anaconda3:

Although pyseer is a noarch package (so is available for Windows), it may well be the case that not all of the dependencies include a Windows version. bioconda doesn't support Windows (and so unfortunately, neither do we through this installation method), so this won't be tested before upload, meaning it's possible to get these errors even though it looks like the package is available. I'm not sure why your message was truncated, but that might show the unsupported packages.

I would recommend either running a virtual machine with ubuntu in your windows environment, or using the docker image for the package available on quay.io

Sorry that we cannot offer direct support in this case
