Request to enable CONDA_APPEND_CORE_REQUIREMENTS feature flag for project cocotb

[eric-wieser]

Filing an issue as requested here.

Brought on by cocotb/cocotb#1706, and a stop gap until #6965 is merged and released.

Hey @eric-wieser! I just enabled this in your project. Let me know if that worked as you expected.

[eric-wieser]

Thanks @humitos.

Is there any way to see the output of conda env create? Unfortunately the --quiet flag hides all of the information about which package versions were installed.

[humitos]

Hrm... I don't think we currently have a way to change that 😞

[eric-wieser]

Is it done that way because the logs are huge and usually useless?

[humitos]

I'd say yes. In particular because of the progress bar that makes all the output to be broken anyways.

-q, --quiet           Do not display progress bar.

It seems there is no way to show the useful information without showing the progress bar.

[eric-wieser]

Would it be possible to run conda list as an extra command then?

[humitos]

I suggested that already at #5006 (comment) but didn't succeed 😄
