Solving environment:failed MacOS // QIIME is caching your current deployment for improved performance

Hi everyone!
I was using QIIME2 2024.5 perfectly and when I tried to install the picrust2 plugin manually for further analysis, it showed me the message:

QIIME is caching your current deployment for improved performance.

And then i wasn't able to use qiime2 anymore. So I looked for help in the forum and saw someone unistalled and installed again and worked, so I did that. However I kept having errors trying to install qiime2 again so i decided to clean up all my conda envs and install again miniconda3.
Then when I tried to install qiime2 again I had this message:

conda env create -n qiime2-amplicon-2024.5 --file qiime2-amplicon-2024.5-py38-osx-conda.yml

SOS please, I'm new in QIIME2 and a relative new bioinformatician as well, i dont know what else to do :sob: :sob: :sob:

Hi @cielovalarcon,
Looks like picrust2 isn't compatible with qiime2-2024.5 becuase we just updated our python package :snake:.

I think the only solution is to go down a qiime version to 2024.2.

I am sorry for the inconvience but I hope this helps!

Yes... it seems so. I tried again unistalling miniconda3 and qiime2. Then installing picrust2 from source in its own environment and worked. Thank you!!
