Can't install qutip with anaconda in linux

I have the latest anaconda version from linux 32. I'm trying to install qutip with the command

conda install qutip

but the package is missing. I already tried adding conda-forge channel.

Any idea of why the package is missing? According to the Qutip documentacion this should be a possible way to install the package. 

Error message: 

Fetching package metadata ...........

PackageNotFoundError: Packages missing in current channels:

  - qutip

We have searched for the packages in the following channels:

  - https://conda.anaconda.org/conda-forge/linux-32
  - https://conda.anaconda.org/conda-forge/noarch
  - https://repo.continuum.io/pkgs/free/linux-32

Solution

  • Indeed, we do not have linux32 builds on conda. You can install via pip though, or build from source.
