problems with installation.....
It has been a real challenge to get this to work, besides the bugs... and still trying.... I write these lines to other people that are trying to get it to work
1.- conda Linux 4.7 has problems and cant install many packages, you have to downgrade to conda 4.6 ( In my case it was deepchem-2.2.0-py37_0.tar.bz2 )
2.- first you need to install conda 4.7 then run this command to downgrade. conda install conda-4.6.14-py37_0.tar.bz2
3.- then you need to isntall these packages in order. conda install -c rdkit rdkit conda install -c conda-forge opencv conda install -c conda-forge joblib
4.- in my case I isntalled keras-gpu which installs keras and tensorflow-gpu conda install -c anaconda keras-gpu
5.- then none of the link in https://anaconda.org/deepchem/ works conda install -c deepchem deepchem-gpu Collecting package metadata: done Solving environment: failed PackagesNotFoundError: The following packages are not available from current channels: ------------------------------------ conda install -c deepchem deepchem Collecting package metadata: done Solving environment: failed PackagesNotFoundError: The following packages are not available from current channels:
6.- does not work either.... conda install -c deepchem -c rdkit -c conda-forge -c omnia deepchem=2.1.0
7.- conda install -c deepchem -c rdkit -c conda-forge -c omnia deepchem=2.2.0 doesn't work for me either !!!!!! this is a real pain in the .....
8.- The only way I got it to work is downaloading this file conda-4.6.14-py37_0.tar.bz2 from https://anaconda.org/deepchem/deepchem/files with this command. conda install deepchem-2.2.0-py37_0.tar.
the only problem with this approach is that once you do this you break conda environment and cant install many other things.....
9.- I will try to install from source and see.... before I break the conda environment again. I had to install conda like 6 times..... did not worked either....
