I have 3 python related environments:

- base (for python3)
- pypy3 (for pypy3)
- pypy27 (for pypy2.7)

I have some programs that I would still like to run under pypy 2.7.

When in the pypy3 environment and I issue a  
conda install sympy  
it seems to install the correct thing for pypy3.

If I am in the pypy27 environment, then pypy is pypy2.7.13.

In pypy27 if I try  
conda install sympy  
then I get the message  
# All requested packages already installed.

But if I run pypy on a program:  
ImportError: No module named sympy

If I  
conda list  
in pypy27, I get  
#sympy 1.10.1 py310hff52083\_1 conda-forge

Any thoughts on how to install the pypy2.7 sympy in anaconda?

dear [doug1](https://forum.anaconda.com/u/doug1).

Thank you for posting.  
Sympy in the Python2.7 series does not exist in the normal registry, so you need to use the old Sympy.

The following Sympy is applicable.  
[https://anaconda.org/mcrot/sympy](https://anaconda.org/mcrot/sympy)  
[https://anaconda.org/certik/sympy](https://anaconda.org/certik/sympy)

Also, importantly, you must ensure that the pypy27 environment is enabled during installation before running conda install.

Regards, you.
