Hi, I am trying to update the seaborn package in my environment on jupyterhub/casper to the latest release (v0.13.2 - January 2024). However, when I try to use

conda update seaborn

it tells me that I have the latest release already, but the version I have is 0.11.2. I then tried to conda remove the package, and then reinstall it using conda install, and it again downloaded the 0.11.2 version. I'm not sure why this is the case. I'm not sure if this is an issue with my environment or something to do with limits on Casper? Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks!

It might be another package you have installed, the version of Python itself, or the channel(s) you're installing from that's limiting the version you can update to.

You could try updating everything in your environment conda update --all though that's not always desirable.

What does your environment look like (conda list)? Feel free to DM me or set up an ESDS office hours appt if you'd rather not dump that here.

Katelyn helped me figure it out. In case anyone else has the same issue, you have to uninstall both seaborn and seaborn-base before installing the new seaborn package. In our case, we also specified the version number in the install command:

conda install seaborn=0.13.2

Thank you, Katelyn!
