Hi,

This is what I get when I run conda install pyqt=4

----

Collecting package metadata (current_repodata.json): done

Solving environment: failed with initial frozen solve. Retrying with flexible solve.

Is there a solution for that?

Thank you for your help!

Hi Edite,

Check the installation docs here: https://github.com/acq4/acq4/#installation -- you need to run `conda config --set restore_free_channel true` to get access to pyqt4.

Alternatively, you could try out the `python3` branch, which has support for pyqt5, but is still in testing.

Cheers,

Luke
