[OS X TeX] where is asymptote binary?

[Murray Eisenberg]

As I originally stated, I am using the conda/anaconda python environment, so trying to use pip will mess up things.

There is no such package “pycson” in the anaconda repositories.

However, the github source https://github.com/avakar/pycson and others say that the name for pip is “cson”, not “pycson”.

But trying to install the cson package with conda (“conda install cson”) gives error:

UnsatisfiableError: The following specifications were found
to be incompatible with the existing python installation in your environment:

Specifications:

  - cson -> python[version='2.7.*|3.5.*|3.6.*']

Your python: python=3.8

If python is on the left-most side of the chain, that's the version you've asked for.
When python appears to the right, that indicates that the thing on the left is somehow
not available for the python version you are constrained to. Note that conda will not
change your python version to a different minor version unless you explicitly specify
that.
