[SOLVED] Problem installing Anaconda3 from AUR, process is stuck

Hello dear people,

for University I have to install Anaconda on my machine. However I run into problems when installing the package from AUR.
The package: AurAnaconda

Just to make sure, here is what I did:

$ git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/anaconda.git
$ cd anaconda
$ pkgctl build 

And then... it takes forever

The process is stuck at:
Preparing transaction:
...working... done
Executing transaction: ...working... done
installation finished.
==> Tidying install...
  -> Purging unwanted files...
  -> Copying source files needed for debug symbols...

I also tried the (in the AUR) recommended fix entering

CRYPTOGRAPHY_OPENSSL_NO_LEGACY=true

but it just doesn't work on my machine.
Additionally I wanted to install miniconda but ran into other problems.

Hopefully someone can help me out with this.

Anaconda tends to cause huge problems with pacman installed python packages .

Please read https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Conda for more info .

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?
Try clean chroot manager by graysky

Re: [SOLVED] Problem installing Anaconda3 from AUR, process is stuck

Thank you for the reply. It didn't work the way I intended, so I downloaded the install script from anaconda https://www.anaconda.com/download/success and that worked after some trys.
However I can not really tell you why it worked. Problem is solved for now, thank you.
