environment: remove conda-forge channel #21

Closed ahmadia closed 7 years ago

ahmadia commented 7 years ago

Temporarily fixes https://github.com/pydata/parallel-tutorial/issues/20 while we sort out issues with the conda-forge channel.

@mrocklin / @quasiben - I'd prefer one of you take a look at this and the discussion on the Slack tutorial channel before I merge.

mrocklin commented 7 years ago

I suspect that there was a reason why we chose to use the conda-forge channel. One thing that comes to mind is pyspark, though that probably won't conflict with defaults just on its own.

ahmadia commented 7 years ago

What's our next step? I can try to either see if the tutorial works off the versions of packages available in the default channel or I can try figuring out what's going wrong in conda-forge. I suppose it would be best if we could determine the problem in conda-forge and land a patch. I think it may be something like an incompatibility between the latest versions of pandas and cloudpickle.

ahmadia commented 7 years ago

Maybe I could try just pinning to earlier versions of pandas and cloudpickles...

ahmadia commented 7 years ago

Pinning cloudpickle to 0.2.2 resolves the issue. I'm going to close this and work from the issue for now.
