The environment is inconsistent, please check the package plan carefully

Question

I tried to update or install new packages from anaconda and lately, this message has appeared:

The environment is inconsistent, please check the package plan         


        

Answer 1

You probably installed anaconda with python 2.7 but later you used python 3.x. Thus, you are getting an error message. In my case, I solved the problem by activating anaconda with python 2.7:

conda create --name py2 python=2.7
