Compatibility Notices¶
As the Conda package ecosystem evolves and third-party software updates are released by Continuum and other providers, this may interfere with the stability of other codebases, such as STScI’s software. This page will proactively chronicle such events as they occur as well as provide workarounds to these issues.
If you spot a compatibility problem not listed here please let us know by sending an email to help@stsci.edu
