Installing Cantera 2.6 on M1 Mac

[Jon]

Hello,

I am trying to install cantera 2.6 on my M1 Macbook Pro. 

I type in: conda create --name ct-env --channel cantera cantera=2.6.0 ipython matplotlib jupyter

However I get the following error:

Channels:

 - cantera

 - defaults

Platform: osx-arm64

Collecting package metadata (repodata.json): done

Solving environment: failed

PackagesNotFoundError: The following packages are not available from current channels:

  - cantera=2.6.0*

Current channels:

  - https://conda.anaconda.org/cantera

  - defaults

To search for alternate channels that may provide the conda package you're

looking for, navigate to

    https://anaconda.org

and use the search bar at the top of the page.

Hi,

Cantera 2.6 is an old version, and no longer supported. If you don't have a specific reason to use it, please upgrade to version 3.0.

That said, you can install on Apple Silicon by using the `conda-forge` channel: conda create --name ct-env --channel conda-forge cantera=2.6.0 ipython matplotlib jupyter

Best,

Bryan
