End of Conda support
Added by Nils Müller 2 months ago
Hi,
I noticed that the CDO Conda-package (https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/cdo) is no longer being updated. Even though it would be nice to have it, I understand that there are problems with the packaging (https://code.mpimet.mpg.de/boards/2/topics/16287). It would be really nice if you could mark the package as deprecated and link to the new Spack package (https://code.mpimet.mpg.de/projects/cdo/wiki/Spack). Additionally, it would be nice to make a note on the wiki page Anaconda as well.
Thank you!
Cheers,
Nils

hi nils!
there are errors during the package update process that are non-reproducible on a local machine. Hence the delay

Hi Ralf,
I understand that there are errors during the packaging (https://code.mpimet.mpg.de/boards/2/topics/16287). Since it has been more than 6 months, it would be nice to point everyone to an alternative for the time being.
That is why suggested to do one of the following:
a) Mark the current Conda version as deprecated until updates resume.
b) Place notes at https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/cdo and the Anaconda wiki entry to use Spack as an alternative.
This way, everyone is aware of the problem and can use the newest version of CDO (with all the bug-fixes).
Cheers,
Nils
