cvxopt on windows effectively uninstallable #41
Comments
While following up on conda-forge/suitesparse-feedstock#51 and investigating what would be necessary for a windows build, I wanted to check the anaconda recipe and found to my great surprise that @nehaljwani is building suitesparse directly within the cvxopt-feedstock. I'm assuming that it is not a problem (much less a licence one with the same licence) if I try to take this over in a PR here. |
I don't remember the license situation. I was just updating the feedstock from the conda package at the time. @msarahan had worked on it. That being said, even if multiple licenses are involved, one can specify multiple licenses in the feedstock too. |
Since #38, there exists a windows build of this feedstock, however, it remains essentially uninstallable (as I'll explain). For #38, I didn't touch the existing host-requirement
and it seems this is creating an incompatibility with all newer versions of openblas (it's possible that I'm overlooking another reason, but this is the only thing that jumps out at me from the recipe and the recipes of the dependencies).
Hence, the conda solver will usually suggest the build from the main channel (note: conda-forge has a higher priority in my channels):
And if forced to choose the conda-forge build, it would lead to large-scale downgrades across packages (esp. from the scientific stack) as openblas is incompatible.
Xref conda-forge/suitesparse-feedstock#51.
