I tried using the command prompt in the Anaconda Cloud Jupyter notebook to install adaptive. The initial command and response are shown below

```auto
(base) 01:59 ~ $ conda install -c conda-forge adaptive
Collecting package metadata (current_repodata.json): done
Solving environment: done

==> WARNING: A newer version of conda exists. <==
  current version: 4.12.0
  latest version: 23.5.0

Please update conda by running

    $ conda update -n base -c defaults conda

## Package Plan ##

  environment location: /opt/conda

  added / updated specs:
    - adaptive

The following packages will be downloaded:

```

The installation appeared to run fine. However at the end I got:

```auto
EnvironmentNotWritableError: The current user does not have write permissions to the target environment.
  environment location: /opt/conda
  uid: 305315
  gid: 60000

```

How should this package be installed?

Good morning,

Thank you for reaching out, that error suggest that there’s a lack of permissions in /opt/conda

To fix this issue please run this command:

chmod -R 777 /opt/conda

chown $USER:$USER
