Whoa, so unpopular post!
For myself and other novices' use in the future ->
(after all, conda install-ed python is easier)
Slightly different but same in that certain library is not reached, acc. to this query:
conda needs to be able to find all the dependencies at once.
The -c flag only adds that channel for that one command.
conda install -c vgauthier rwest graph-tool. But an easier way is to add those channels to your configuration
conda config --add channels vgauthier --add channels rwest
And then perform
conda install graph-tool
But when I used conda install -c http://conda.anaconda.org/vgauthier graph-tool command, it worked instantly.
Before that, nothing worked. (when I only used the user name vguathier or ostrokach-forge or else)
If I type vi .condarc I see
channels:
- ostrokach-forge
- conda-forge
- defaults
And because I remain quite ignorant in using brew-installed packages with conda-installed python, I started out by following the directions to install all the necessary dependencies using brew. (including pixman)
Wonder how the command found everything though.. plus python upgraded to 3.6 from 3.5.
God this is how I am left with solving os issues.. i'm not 100 % clear how I made the computer connect the dots.
And still, nonetheless, I am still left with how to figure the install with ./configure. I want to understand the error msg that was returned and how to address it.
