From d0f631a69b2cfaee01946c5a23970e59f1f798a6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Young Date: Mon, 17 Jun 2024 10:02:22 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Python install: update Anaconda URL The Anaconda corporation has become rather more aggressive about getting users to sign up, as well as pushing their other products. The current link we use now goes to a "Provide email to download Distribution" screen with an almost invisible "Skip registration" button. This has baffled at least one learner in my workshop today. This commit replaces the URL with a link that goes straight to the download page. --- _includes/install_instructions/python.html | 8 ++++---- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/_includes/install_instructions/python.html b/_includes/install_instructions/python.html index cf80ab88..dd7e5e26 100644 --- a/_includes/install_instructions/python.html +++ b/_includes/install_instructions/python.html @@ -13,7 +13,7 @@
