Spyder complains about missing dependency paramiko

Question

I just upgraded Anaconda and Spyder to the latest version (Spyder 5.1.5), but since that I get an error message every time I start Spyder:

However, I have tried to install and update paramiko with both conda install paramiko and conda update paramiko , which appears to be of version 2.8.1 (this is the output from conda list about paramiko:

paramiko                  2.8.1              pyhd3eb1b0_0

I'm not sure if I even use this package, but I would be much happier if I didn't get this error message upon Spyder startup.

Answer 1

Try:

conda update paramiko

If it does not work:

pip uninstall paramiko
pip install pyqt5==5.12
pip install pyqtwebengine==5.12
pip install paramiko==2.4.0

This works for me. Hope it helps!

Thanks!
