conda hangs on "solving environment"

Whenever I try to install conda packages on WSL, it seems to hang. For example, I'm trying to run the following command on a new environment:

conda install pytorch torchvision torchaudio pytorch-cuda=11.8 -c pytorch -c nvidia

Collecting package metadata (current_repodata.json): done
Solving environment: failed with initial frozen solve. Retrying with flexible solve.
Solving environment: failed with repodata from current_repodata.json, will retry with next repodata source.
Collecting package metadata (repodata.json): done
Solving environment: |

Is there any way to troubleshoot why this might be happening? I tried using the --verbose flag after my command, but didn't get anything much more helpful:

Collecting package metadata (current_repodata.json): ...working... done
Solving environment: ...working... failed with initial frozen solve. Retrying with flexible solve.
Solving environment: ...working... failed with repodata from current_repodata.json, will retry with next repodata source.
Collecting package metadata (repodata.json): ...working...

and it continues to hang there.

Solution

I used the same command, and it took me 10 minutes for solving. Try to give it a bit more time.
