What happened?

Because of the regex used by conda-build, selectors will be detected in locations where users would likely not expect them to be.

Some examples:

package:
  name: example
  version: 1.0.0
test:
  commands:
    - echo "An example of slicing an array is arr[1:None]
      neat right!"

(combining these last two lines or adding a comma results in a working recipe)

and

package:
  name: example
  version: 1.0.0
test:
  commands:
    - echo "I told #user to slice the array with array[1:None] which worked"

Both of these recipes will fail to build because the selector is invalid:

CondaBuildUserError: Invalid selector in meta.yaml line 6:
offending selector:
  [1:None]
exception:
  SyntaxError: invalid syntax (<string>, line 1)

For clarity a selector will be detected on any line where

  • There are a pair of brackets [...] at the end of the line (after removing whitespace).
  • There are a pair of brackets [...] after a comment #.

I suspect this issue has been in conda-build for so long that is cannot be nicely addressed without breaking backwards compatibility. I would be happy to see this issue marked as wont-fix.

Similar issues have been reported in the past but are now closed. For example #4654.

I saw this error in the about/description section of the meta.yaml, where inside the string was a substring [repack of MINGW-packages libidn2 for UCRT64]. conda-build thinks that it's a selector, not a part of the YAML string.
It can be fixed manually by replacing square brackets with round brackets. But yeah, it's a conda-build bug.
