Hello,
In trying to add support for linux/riscv64 to many projects in the OSS community, I'm often running into the lack of upstream support for conda on RISC-V. Given the alignement on the belief in openness of Conda and RISC-V, I believe this is something that should be fixed. However, I'm quite new to the Conda ecosystem, so I'm not really sure where to get started.
From what I understand, the first thing to do would be to make sure that users have access to a conda CLI to install packages. To get that CLI built, IIUC this should be done on this current project conda-forge/minoconda (is that correct?). When looking at the CI files, it depends on linux-anvil-riscv64 which should be built in conda-forge/docker-images/ (is that correct as well?). However, this is were there seem to be a catch-22, in order to build that image, it requires to download a release from conda-forge/minoconda (in scripts/run_commands).
Happy to do all the work, but I would love to have some input on how to get started on that!
Being part of RISE as well and looking after everything Software Enablement on RISC-V, we would be very happy to fund that project however we can. We also propose free Github RISC-V Runners if you lack the hardware.
Thank you very very much!
Expected result
The conda CLI is available on linux-riscv64.
