Bug#926416: ITP: conda -- OS-agnostic, system-level binary package manager and ecosystem

[Mo Zhou <lumin@debian.org>]

Hi Andreas,

Conda should not enter the main section.

As doko said, conda use MKL (non-free) by default, and prebuilt packages
are linked against libmkl_rt.so (entrance lib of MKL). So if you are going
to do performance tests, swithing BLAS/LAPACK alterntive to libmkl_rt
for Debian packages could help you reduce the number of variables to
control.

Install an Anaconda instance and identify the MKL linkage:

  fdfind -e so -x readelf -d | rg mkl

Another point supporting the "should enter contrib" claim is that
Anaconda does NOT allow its software repository be mirrored without
asking, which makes the packages not freely redistributable.
