Arch Linux User Repository

Important note: This is the way how to upgrade.

Suppose that we have this line in ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc or etc.

[ -f /opt/miniconda3/etc/profile.d/conda.sh ] && source /opt/miniconda3/etc/profile.d/conda.sh

1. Before to upgrade I comment this line.
2. Upgrade the package as usual.
3. Uncomment the line.

I have packaged micromamba in AUR. Try it if you are looking for a lightweight, barebones alternative to miniconda.

@jadelord, yes, you are right. Just conda offered me to upgrade to version 4.8.3. I can not execute conda update conda, because it was installed in /opt. Should I update using sudo?

@nikatar sure, but Miniconda is a "distribution" which often lags behind conda releases. https://repo.continuum.io/miniconda/

Please, update it. Version 4.8.3 was released in March: https://github.com/conda/conda/releases

@JcNils thanks for pointing that out. I would not dare to try to reproduce that. Instead, I tried a fresh install of miniconda3 using yay, and it just works.

If you do not want to install a package manager, I would suggest simply to git clone and makepkg -si to install it yourself.

Hi @jadelord

The comment you mentioned seems to be an answer to a problem different from those listed here.

I just installed Manjaro and I can't install conda.

It seems that this is happening exclusively with people using Manjaro. I will post something on their forum to ask for help.

@giswqs, @lerhard Such errors could happen if you try to install miniconda3 while having a custom python environment activated (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/anaconda/#comment-702897)

I got the following error when updating the package. Tried on two computers, both got the same error:

This package simply follows the pkgbuild of anaconda in AUR (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/anaconda/). Heads up: users are discouraged to install miniconda3 as an AUR package as there is no official howto on packaging it in linux distros (https://github.com/conda/conda/issues/1235). You may be better served as just running:

curl -LO <https://repo.continuum.io/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh>
bash Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh -p /path/to/miniconda

I cannot install the package due to:
