What is the best way to install fipy with anaconda3 (in a ubuntu 16.04 machine)?
I have tried conda create --name FIPY --channel conda-forge python=3 fipy numpy scipy matplotlib pysparse gmsh but the results in a lot of conflicts like this:
Collecting package metadata (current_repodata.json): done
Solving environment: failed with repodata from current_repodata.json, will retry with next repodata source.

Now conda activate FIPY gives me
Could not find conda environment: FIPY
You can list all discoverable environments with `conda info --envs`.
Is it better to create an environment with python 2.7 for fipy? Thanks in advance!
----------------- EDIT -----------------
Apart from the answer posted by jaguyer, it seems the anaconda prescribed way of installing fipy also works out (at least in my case - ubuntu 16.04, python 3.x in conda base). I will write the steps here:
- Create a new environment by
conda create -n <environment name>e.g.,conda create -n fipy - Activate the environment by
conda activate fipy - Install fipy in the new env from conda-forge
conda install -c conda-forge fipy
Just entering conda install -c conda-forge fipy in the anaconda base environment did not work for me resulting in: Solving environment: | Found conflicts! Looking for incompatible packages. Hope this helps!
CodePudding user response：
Per the link you posted, FiPy should be installed with
conda create --name <MYFIPYENV> --channel conda-forge python=<PYTHONVERSION> fipy gmsh
Everything else on that page are for various edge cases. The particular combination of packages you posted are for Windows and, in fact, include a typo. Pysparse is not compatible with Python 3.
It is not better to create an environment with Python 2.7.
