I'm sorry, I'm afraid I don't personally use Anaconda, so I have no
experience of fixing compilation errors on Anaconda.   Ariel - have
you come across this?

You could also try on the anaconda support channels (issues, mailing
list) - it may well be a general problem rather than one specific to
dipy,

Best,
