Following the system HPCM upgrade in August, the new conda/2025-09-25 module is now available to users on Polaris; it is recommended that all users of the previous conda/2024-04-29 module switch as soon as possible. While the old module remains the default if “module load conda” is used, the default will change in two weeks. The old module may be removed entirely in the future (advanced notice will be given).
