Description
This problem has now occurred several times:
The problem occurs when the user has a pre-installed Anaconda. We have seen at least 3-4 cases of this now.
- It happens because the Anaconda distribution was used.
- When that is pre-installed then any conda-init will not overwrite the old settings because it is the conda from the old installation that is referenced
- Conda installing packages won't work either because there are so many base packages installed in the
base
environment that nothing will ever be installed.
I think the simplest solution in this case would be to:
- disable the anaconda installation,
- Ensure that the
conda init
we issue is from the newly installed one - Double check that in a new terminal, I guess this can be done in the auto-script, not so much in the manual installation guide.
- Potentially we should have a good description of how to delete old installations
I am not too fond of executing un-install scripts on studenst pc's at the moment. Lets try and solve this by information, and guides for handling this so we can actually learn a bit from this experience.
@philipnickel tagging you, we should discuss this tomorrow ;)
