Hi,

How did you install Spyder? Since you posted you're using 5.5.6, it seems you didn't install through Anaconda.


Cheers,
Carlos

Thanks Carlos

I am obviously missing something key, as I cannot understand why the previous update approach - which has always "just worked" - seems to have been abandoned.  I did not have to wait 3 or 6 months; there was simply a short command provided on the update dialog box to copy & run.

Cheers
Derek

    Hi,

    If you want to update via the |defaults| channel, then you’ll have
    to wait months (maybe three or perhaps even six) for that because
    that’s the time the Anaconda team takes these days to update
    Spyder. And, by the way, we can’t do anything about it because
    we’re not affiliated to Anaconda.

    The instructions I referenced in my previous email make use of the
    |conda-forge| channel, which is always up to date. But, since
    |defaults| and |conda-forge| packages are binary incompatible, you
    need to create a new environment for the update. Furthermore, you
    also need to install in that env all packages you need for your
    work from |conda-forge|.


    Cheers,
    Carlos

    Hi

    Yes, I have already been using Spyder for many years now and
    updates have always worked before - but now I cannot update to
    version 6.  I don't want to install; I want to upgrade.

    Thanks
    Derek

        Hi,

        The link you referenced is to update Spyder with conda, not
        installing it. The link for that is:

        
https://docs.spyder-ide.org/current/installation.html#installing-with-conda

        If you follow the instructions there then you'll be able to
        easily install Spyder 6.


        Cheers,
        Carlos

        Hi

        In the past, the message inside Spyder announcing an update
        provided steps to follow for conda.

        The new announcement does not.  When I try and follow the
        website instructions at
        
https://docs.spyder-ide.org/current/installation.html#updating-with-conda
        they fail.

        EnvironmentNameNotFound: Could not find conda environment:
        spyder-env
        You can list all discoverable environments with `conda info
        --envs`.

        The only Conda envs listed are ones I have created for
        projects ... now what do I do to upgrade?

        Current system info:

        * Spyder version: 5.5.6  (conda)
        * Python version: 3.11.5 64-bit
        * Qt version: 5.15.2
        * PyQt5 version: 5.15.10
        * Operating System:
        Linux-5.15.0-119-generic-x86_64-with-glibc2.35

        Thanks
        Derek
