Update Problems

Product Help Anaconda & Miniconda
1

Hello all,

I have updated my conda and the individual envs.
conda update conda
conda update --all -n envname

But when checking the versions (conda list -n envname) of individual packages, I noticed that they were not updated. Because according to the developers there are already newer versions.

In addition, one tool no longer works at all since the update and I get the following output:

(polish) stw@jki-pre5820:~$ medaka --help
Traceback (most recent call last):

    raise AttributeError("module {!r} has no attribute "

Can anyone help me?
Many thanks in advance

Anaconda supplies stable versions of packages with it’s distribution, which are not necessarily the latest available version of a package. If you want to get the latest version of a package, you can install a package from conda-forge(make sure to create a new conda environment):

conda create -n mycforgepkgs 
conda activate mycforgepkgs
conda install pandas -c conda-forge
