[UW-GIS-L] ArcGIS Pro and Python

[Thomas Ott]

GIS support at UW

I have Arc GIS Pro version 3.1.2 and I've tried to install a few packages for using python with ArcGIS Pro using the Package Manager.  First, I created a clone environment and then I tried to install Spyder. This failed so I checked for missing dependency files.  Spyder listed 41 dependency files and I checked them one by one to verify if they met the version requirements for Spyder. Twenty-two files required installation to meet the dependency requirements. I installed them using the package manager and the Spyder installation still fails.  ArcGIS Pro is using python version 3.9.16 and it says that version 3.11.3 is available, but I wasn't able to upgrade with the Package manager. I'm not sure if that is a firm dependency for a Spyder installation.

ArcGIS Pro isn't proving friendly like Linux RPM for installing packages.  I wanted to contact ESRI directly on this, but the UW license doesn't allow me to ask ESRI for help.

Suggestions?  I captured the installation log file, and I made an Excel spreadsheet for the dependency files.  I fear that the dependency files have additional dependency files, and I could chase this issue for days.  I can send the log file
