Same. When I try to force update qdarkstyle with conda, it says that qdarkstyle will be updated from 2.8.1 to 3.0.2, but spyder will be downgraded from 5.0.0 to 4.2.3. This is tested on a clean spyder-env environment installed according to troubleshooting guide on Spyder website. Python version is 3.9.2, Spyder is 5.0.0, Qt is 5.9.7 and PyQt is 5.9.2, Windows 10 x64.

This is a problem in the new packages released by the Anaconda team. I’ll talk to them right away so they can fix this problem as soon as possible.
