Updating Spyder takes too long in Anaconda Navigator

Technical Topics

Updating spyder 5.1.5 to 5.2.2 using Anaconda Navigator takes forever. Can’t install spyder 5.2.2 update in Anaconda.

I think Anaconda is a victim of it’s own success. Very very slow.

@soumesh6622 How much time did it take for you? I’m updating to spyder 5.3.3, it’s been 48 hours and hasn’t finished. Is that normal?

They should remove Spyder from Anaconda, there are many alternatives to Spyder, which are better

What other solutions are there to this problem? What else is everybody using ?
