Update anaconda and its packages on Ubuntu
Post date: Jul 10, 2015 8:07:43 PM
I have 2 versions of anaconda on my machine:
- anaconda -- for python 2.7
- anaconda3 -- for python 3.4
And I want to upgrade the latter one from version 2.0 to 2.3, so rather than the conventional command below (from this cheat sheet)
$ conda update conda
$ conda update anaconda
I have to be more specific by running it from within that specific directory:
# This will update the python packages within the anaconda
~$ ./anaconda3/bin/conda update conda
Fetching package metadata: ....
Solving package specifications: .
Package plan for installation in environment /home/local/ANT/kittipat/anaconda3:
... blah blah blah
# This will upgrade the anaconda version itself
~$ ./anaconda3/bin/conda update anaconda
