Hi Nathan,
I just tried again about an hour ago and was able to successfully update.
So whatever the problem was, it seems to be fixed now.
On a different note, when I do 'conda update anaconda' it asks me if I want
to downgrade a whole slew of packages due to dependency conflicts including
astropy, matplotlib, numpy, and scipy among others. Any idea what's up
with that? I'll ask on the anaconda user's list.
Regards,
Jon
