install_requires in setup.py vs meta.yaml requirements about conda-docs

[msarahan]

The safest thing is to copy your install_requires into both requirements/build and requirements/run

You can cut things from either and see if it still works.

[msarahan]

There is no "install" section. There's build and run. You need to provide whatever is necessary for setup.py to successfully run at build time. Often times, run-time requirements are much more extensive than build-time requirements - these are things that are needed for all of the functionality in your package.

Please see the meta.yaml reference at https://conda.io/docs/building/meta-yaml.html

sorry bout that , i updated my issue.
so, if i understand, the package list in meta.yaml's build should be what is in setup()'s install_requires (at the least), since conda doesnt use setuptools ?

ok thanks.

to put this in context, i am trying to put this package on conda-forge, but i get a conflict which i dont know how to troubleshoot. the latency on cloud services makes trial and error removal of dependency packages sloowww....
