Attempt to install Qiime2 with Pixi on an M1 mac

Developer Discussion

I downloaded a yml file and converted it to the pixi format:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/qiime2/distributions/refs/heads/dev/2025.7/amplicon/released/qiime2-amplicon-macos-latest-conda.yml

pixi init --import qiime2-amplicon-macos-latest-conda.yml

I edited this part:

platforms = ["osx-64"]

Then pixi install

Miraculously, it made it through the install but missed some R software, including the historic problem bioconductor-genomeinfodb

So close!

:fairy: :crying_cat:

Interesting, do they not run post-link hooks? That's where our nemesis lives.

EDIT: check out this:

That might solve it.
