I was agreeing, but pointing out that I didn't see a way that I _could_ help, since I found nothing helpful on the conda website. -- Thomas E.

Then you reply anyway... Not that I'm upset but if I am replying with a correct response why do you also feel the need to respond?

With a little more checking, all I see is python - and those add-on things generally aren't designed to work with existing package systems. Without some way to download the package files independently of the conda install, there's no way to do any useful analysis though. -- Thomas E.
