Install Mamba 2?

Comment:

Following the instructions I'm getting Mamba 1.5.11, which doesn't work (mamba-org/mamba#3637). What should I do to get Mamba version 2?

I have been having trouble updating to to 2.0 -- #697

I think we should backport mamba-org/mamba#3702

honestly, as a workaround i've been using conda more and more recently.

conda + conda_libmamba_solver (now installed by default) is almost the same as mamba.

You get a different "bug surface" but typically bouncing between the two you can continue to work while kinks get worked out.

I believe that mamba 2.0.5 is buggy. Miniforge is now released with Mamba 1.5.12.

Please open an issue with mamba-feedstock or mamba-org/mamba, but as far as Miniforge3 is now concerned, the installer is working as of https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge/releases/tag/24.11.2-1 We have downgraded to 1.5.12 and a patched version of conda that addresses the deprecations
