Question

I successfully install the fancyimpute in my env but the package still shows missing in the current channel, not sure what this means. I tried pip install fancyimpute + conda search fancyimpute, it shows the same error as below: Any idea how to fix this. Appreciate it!

(py36) C:\Users\chenl>conda install -c brittainhard fancyimpute
Fetching package metadata ...............

Answer 1

It looks like you're in Windows, and the brittainhard/fancyimpute doesn't have a Windows version available. To get a Windows version, you'll need to use one of the other conda channels , for example CIMCB/fancyimpute : conda install -c cimcb fancyimpute

Answer 2

Try to install running this commands in this order:

conda install ecos  
conda install CVXcanon  
pip install fancyimpute
