What were you looking for

Following the current instruction, the installation of GEOUNED using Conda can sometimes take a very long time to resolve dependencies. If you have an older version of conda (23.9 or less), the default solver is very slow - it is recommended to install GEOUNED using conda-libmamba-solver, default in conda 23.10 and newer.

Is the information available in the doc but not where you would expect?

No.

Is information completely lacking or partial?

Completely lacking.

Where would you insert the missing information?

Installation using Conda.

Additional context

The suggested workflow is the following for users of conda versions 23.9 or less:
conda create --name new_env python=3.11
conda activate new_env
conda install conda-libmamba-solver
conda install -c conda-forge geouned -y --solver=libmamba

I think this is why mamba (which is included in miniforge conda distribution) was a prefered solution as it is both fast and few installation lines

mamba install -c conda-forge geouned

Another option for conda (anaconda distribution) is

conda install -c conda-forge mamba

Then use mamba

Then use mamba

Thank you for the comment, I completely agree that it is a preferred solution. However, in my personal experience, I already have few environments in conda and I would like to centralise them there, so this was also quite a helpful solution.
