Install Problem about Assignment1

[Adora2401]

Hi Professor,

When I tried to install the requirements in general instruction,
conda install -c conda-forge igl shows "Solving environment: failed with initial frozen solve. Retrying with flexible solve."
Then I tried to use conda env create -f environment.yml directly, it shows
"Collecting package metadata (repodata.json): done
Solving environment: failed

ResolvePackageNotFound:

• zlib==1.2.11=h7795811_1010
• nodejs==14.7.0=hdde0ff8_0
• jedi==0.18.0=py38h50d1736_2
  ..."

I'm not sure how to solve this porblem, the solutions I tried:
1.conda config --set channel_priority flexible
2. conda config --set channel_priority false
3. recreate an env and activate it.
But they all not work. So could I use Colab instead of Jupyter Notebook? Or how to solve this problem...

Also, when I used Colab to run the sample code
meshplot.plot(bunny_v, bunny_f, shading={"wireframe": True})
It throws “TraitError: The 'shadow' trait of a DirectionalLight instance expected an Uninitialized or a LightShadow, not the str 'IPY_MODEL_[object Object]'.”
Could you please tell me how to solve it? Thanks a lot.

What operating system do you have? Is your conda installation able to install other packages (for example conda install numpy)?

It‘s Mac m1. Conda could intall other packages.

This is a copy of #6, there will be a fix in a few days.
