No packages in current osx-64 and channels

Question

After trying to recreate the environment using the file, I got this error: Error: Packages missing in current osx-64 channels: - timbr-io::argh 0.26.1 py27_0 - timbr-io::pathtools 0.1.2 py27_0 - timbr-io::watchdog 0.8.3 py27_0

And the same error executed by these commands in the docker container. Error: Packages missing in current linux-64 channels: - timbr-io::argh 0.26.1 py27_0 - timbr-io::pathtools 0.1.2 py27_0 - timbr-io::watchdog 0.8.3 py27_0

This is the file that I use as the source: name: snowflakes dependencies: - boto3=1.3.1=py27_0 - botocore=1.4.28=py27_0 - docutils=0.12=py27_2 - ecdsa=0.13=py27_0 - futures=3.0.5=py27_0 - jmespath=0.9.0=py27_0 - openssl=1.0.2h=1 - paramiko=1.16.0=py27_0 - pip=8.1.2=py27_0 - pycrypto=2.6.1=py27_4 - python=2.7.12=1 - python-dateutil=2.5.3=py27_0 - pyyaml=3.11=py27_4 - readline=6.2=2 - setuptools=23.0.0=py27_0 - six=1.10.0=py27_0 - sqlite=3.13.0=0 - timbr-io::argh=0.26.1=py27_0 - timbr-io::pathtools=0.1.2=py27_0 - timbr-io::watchdog=0.8.3=py27_0 - tk=8.5.18=0 - wheel=0.29.0=py27_0 - yaml=0.1.6=0 - zlib=1.2.8=3 - pip: - argh==0.26.1 - pathtools==0.1.2 - watchdog==0.8.3

Note: I actually create this file that runs the following commands, the problem is when I try to recreate this environment. conda create --name snowflakes boto3 paramiko source activate snowflakes conda install -c timbr-io watchdog conda env export > environment.yml

As you can see, I am installing watchdog from timbr-io (in anaconda.org), which have linux-64 and osx-64 ( timbr-io / watchdog ) versions .

You cannot use a conda environment exported from one operating system and use it on another.

Package numbers (and in some cases package availability) are not aligned on different platforms.

conda env export - this means that you can play the same env on the same OS.
