This issue is still kinda relevant:

$ guix shell -C conda

[env]$ conda --version
conda 25.9.1

[env]$ conda init bash
...
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'sudo'


But conda does actually add the 'conda initialize' block to ~/.bashrc, so it does work and the error can be ignored.

But then again, ~/.bashrc is not actually sourced when running `guix shell -C conda`, so one still has to manually do that part.


Nevertheless, maybe we should close this issue and https://issues.guix.gnu.org/42920 and step back and rethink what we want our conda approach to be, and define some use cases that we want to support (or not want to support) and then take it from there.


I've personally decided to wean myself away from conda, as Guix solves the same problems better. I prefer to spend my time on getting more conda packages into Guix than getting conda to work properly.

So maybe I will step up to improve conda on Guix, it is currently low on my priorities.
