Problem Description

I have Spyder installed via Anconda. Version of spyder was 5.0. I have installed many python packages like pyvisa and is working fine. As Spyder 5.0.2 is not available in Anaconda, Installed stand-alone version of spyder 5.0.2. But in the spyder 5.0.2, I am not able to use packages like pyvisa etc. How to install these packages so that I can use it with Spyder 5.0.2.

Hi @leyojoseph,

Right now we are waiting for Anaconda to publish 5.0.2 in the defaults channel, if you want to upgrade via anaconda please use conda install -c conda-forge spyder. If you are interested on using our installers, you will need to create a new environment with all the packages you need and spyder-kernels and then link to that interpreter in preferences.

I’m glad that you could resolve this issue with other users! I’m closing this issue and thank you for reporting 😃
