Install the Python package mca on Anaconda

Question

On the anaconda prompt I tried conda install mca

and also, based on this, conda install -c davidbgonzalez mca

but I still get this error:

PackagesNotFoundError: The following packages are not available from current channels:

  - mca

I use python 3.6 and windows 10

Does this answer your question? [PackagesNotFoundError: The following packages are not available from current channels:](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/48493505/packagesnotfounderror-the-following-packages-are-not-available-from-current-cha) — ltd9938, Feb 27 '20 at 16:33

Open Conda Prompt and instead of conda install mca use pip install mca It works fine. It will get installed in your Conda Virtual Environment itself. Here's the Conda Prompt:

So, I solved the issue by running the command:

conda config --set channel_priority false.

And then proceed with the mca download with the command run:

conda install mca

Can you provide some details about your environment? Which channels are you using? – AMC Feb 27 '20 at 18:09
Oh, probably I realise I am mistaken. It is via spyder. Are you within spyder environment by any chance? – GaB Feb 27 '20 at 18:13
I don't use Spyder, no. – AMC Feb 27 '20 at 18:13
Tried what, using Spyder? I believe I have, although I can't remember exactly. I use PyCharm as my IDE. – AMC Feb 27 '20 at 18:21
OH, Okay, but you have tried the conda config --set channel_priority false? – GaB Feb 27 '20 at 18:22

According to this (What do the operating system tags mean in the anaconda packages?) the operating system tags show the systems that the package can be installed to.

The package that you want to install, mca, has only the ljnux-64 tag while you mentioned that you use a Windows 10 machine. So I guess you can't install it
