    I agree with you. That's why in the past I made this issue: https://github.com/CadQuery/cadquery/issues/153

    The developers don't seem to be receptive. But fortunately a nix flake exists: https://github.com/marcus7070/cq-flake

    Takes ages to compile thought so I advice you to either be patient or add the cache.

    Yes I agree. Anaconda is one of the worst pieces of software on earth. In fact I have never gotten it to work with anaconda. I use this nix-flake: https://github.com/marcus7070/cq-flake which is faaaaar easier to use and setup and includes the editor. But the README says it probably won't work on non-nixos systems so your mileage may vary.
