For this version of SunPy we have started building our conda packages on the excellent conda forge service.
This means you need to add the conda-forge channel to your conda installation.
If you have never installed SunPy before we recommend you follow our installation instruction.
If you are upgrading from a previous release run the following two commands if you installed via conda
:
conda config --add channels conda-forge
conda upgrade sunpy
If you installed via pip
then you can upgrade with:
pip install -U sunpy
