Installing packages with Anaconda

On Ubuntu 14.04, I have installed Anaconda, which I use as my main Python interpreter. I now want to install the TensorFlow library and use this via Anaconda. So, I downloaded the relevant foo.whl file from the TensorFlow website, and then ran pip install foo.whl. After this, I ran pip freeze, and it showed me tensorflow==0.7.1 indicating that it was installed successfully.

However, using the Anaconda interpreter, when I run a Python file which has import tensorflow, it tells me ImportError: No module named 'tensorflow'. Additionally, if I search my Anaconda directory, there is no reference to TensorFlow.

Now at first, I thought this was because pip install was using pip that comes with the native Ubuntu installation. However, I have the line export PATH=/home/karnivaurus/Libraries/Anaconda/bin:$PATH in my .bashrc file, and so this suggests it would use Anaconda's pip.

Any idea what's going on? Thanks!

First uninstall all the dependencies of tensorflow using

pip uninstall tensorflow

Then install tensorflow package with conda run:

 conda install -c jjhelmus tensorflow=0.10.0rc0

If you want to install tensorflow package with pip run:

pip install -i https://pypi.anaconda.org/jjhelmus/simple tensorflow

Sources: https://anaconda.org/jjhelmus/tensorflow
