Rather than completely duplicating.. please take a look here: https://github.com/conda/conda/issues/3827 and here: https://github.com/conda/conda/issues/3828 In short I'm now stuck with this error and no idea how to fix, if I try to install via conda I get a solution set that proposes to downgrade my environment rather substantially.. so I'm stuck with this : So far no clues from Conda, Maybe someone here has a better idea? some way to resolve the missing libconv.so.2 ?? perhaps? seems tied up with PyQt5?
