PackagesNotFoundError unable to install snp-sites and snippy via bioconda

[gloriajzhou]

I would like to install snippy via bioconda using the command: conda install -c bioconda snippy

However, I receive the following error:

Channels:

• bioconda
• defaults
• r
• conda-forge
  Platform: osx-arm64
  Collecting package metadata (repodata.json): done
  Solving environment: failed

LibMambaUnsatisfiableError: Encountered problems while solving:

• nothing provides snp-sites >=2.4 needed by snippy-4.4.0-0

Could not solve for environment specs
The following package could not be installed
└─ snippy =* * is not installable because it requires
└─ snp-sites >=2.4 *, which does not exist (perhaps a missing channel).

Next, I tried to install snp-sites via bioconda using: conda install -c bioconda snp-sites

However, I then received this error:

Channels:

• bioconda
• defaults
• r
• conda-forge
  Platform: osx-arm64
  Collecting package metadata (repodata.json): done
  Solving environment: failed

PackagesNotFoundError: The following packages are not available from current channels:

• snp-sites

Current channels:

• https://conda.anaconda.org/bioconda
• defaults
• https://conda.anaconda.org/r
• https://conda.anaconda.org/conda-forge
• https://repo.anaconda.com/pkgs/main
• https://repo.anaconda.com/pkgs/r

To search for alternate channels that may provide the conda package you're
looking for, navigate to

https://anaconda.org

and use the search bar at the top of the page.

Any advice to resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated.
