I am unable to update my statsmodels v. 0.6.1 to 0.8.0rc1 using conda (I used conda because I have conda installed).

I have tried several ways:

  1. conda install statsmodels (based on http://www.statsmodels.org/dev/). Nothing happened, my version stays the same.
  2. conda update statsmodels. Still not updated, see below.

    C:\Users\E245713>conda update statsmodels Fetching package metadata .........

    Solving package specifications: ..........

    All requested packages already installed.

    packages in environment at C:\Users\E245713\AppData\Local\Continuum\Anaconda3:

    statsmodels 0.6.1 np111py35_1

  3. Uninstalled statsmodels and installed it again, and it still installed the old version 0.6.1.

I am using windows 7 Enterprise.

Any ideas?

  • You can only install it, if there's a conda package available. If you cannot find a conda package, use pip instead. – cel Oct 10 '16 at 15:09
  • So, based on http://www.statsmodels.org/dev/, it's saying that we can install it using conda, which I did. But, it's still not updated. I've also tried pip based on the same link I mentioned, and still not updated... – wi3o Oct 10 '16 at 15:47
  • You can find the source here:`https://github.com/statsmodels/statsmodels/releases and install directly from the source using pip. – cel Oct 10 '16 at 15:57
  • Thanks for the help!, I found a way using pip. See my answer below. – wi3o Oct 10 '16 at 16:22

So, what I did is:

pip install statsmodels==0.8.0rc1

This works for me. I don't know the conda way...

I just had this issue as well. I went a different route. I went to the Anaconda website. I typed statsmodels in the search bar and it brings you to this page. From here you click the version you want to install using conda and it gives you command line syntax to download it.

conda install -c taugspurger statsmodels=0.8.0 is the version I installed.
