[conda] Package not found when specifying a specific version of a package

[Carlos Guzman]

I am attempting to install a package via Singularity.

I'm running into a weird issue where if I specify a version (such that
conda install -c bioconda package=x.x.x) I get a package not found error,
but if I do not specify a version (such that conda install package) it
installs fine. I have already searched and made sure the version I am
attempting to install does exist.

When I try to install the package with version information (such that conda
install -c bioconda package=x.x.x) on my home computer outside of the
Singularity container (which uses the miniconda3 docker image) that also
works fine.

Error:

+ /opt/conda/bin/conda install -c bioconda --yes snakemake=4.6.0
Solving environment: failed

If you add the channels prior to conda install, this works fine:

conda config --add channels r
conda config --add channels conda-forge
conda config --add channels bioconda


conda install --yes snakemake=4.6.0
