Looking at https://anaconda.org/LiteX-Hub/klayout I have seen that somebody (don't know who) has made available klayout as a conda package but this activity ended with the release 0.28.1.
I would like to know if the conda distribution is affected by any limitation compared to the windows installer. If not I think that, perhaps, it could facilitate the integration with other open source codes like, in example, FreeCAD or pythonOCC. FreeCAD and pythonOCC are both available from conda reposository: https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/freecad and https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/pythonocc-core.
In the developmemnt of my klayout package layoutDD, pythonOCC could be a lighter replacement of the FreeCAD modules.

Hi @wsteffe,
I don't think there are serious limitations, but I don't want to maintain another packaging system. That is simply too much trouble.
