Unsupported conda version: 4.5.5

Hi @pelson, I get the following error when trying to work with conda-gitenv and conda-build-all if using conda 4.5.5:

(venv-gitenv) [root@localhost environments]# conda gitenv resolve ${ENV_REPO}
Traceback (most recent call last):

    % (CONDA_VERSION, str(CONDA_VERSION_MAJOR_MINOR)))
NotImplementedError: CONDA_VERSION: 4.5.5  CONDA_VERSION_MAJOR_MINOR: (4, 5)
(venv-gitenv) [root@localhost environments]# conda --version
conda 4.5.5

What is the quickest fix? Just switching conda versions or is it minor to patch conda-build-all?

[pelson]

Switching conda versions is definitely the quickest fix. Fixing conda-build-all is the longer-term fix.

Thanks @pelson

Is this project dead, it's been years since the last commit. Are there better tools to build conda environments? (@pelson - asking here since it's the latest issue!)

[corentincarton]

Is this project still alive? It's not compatible with conda > 4.4 unfortunately... @pelson, would it be a lot of work to update the tool to make it work with the latest version of conda? Or do you know another similar tool?
