Installation of OHW fails due to matplotlib version

[maurerjennifer]

Hi there,
I was trying to get OHW running as described in the UserGuide. Unfortunatelly I receive the following error message:

FileNotFoundError: No such file or directory: 'C:\\Users\\[...]\\.matplotlib\\fontlist-v300.json'

Running on Win10 with Anaconda3-2021.11.
I found the following issue related to matplotlib's version 3.0.0 on windows, which recommmends updating to a more recent version like 3.0.2.

This unfortunatelly depends on a newer version of python (> 3.5). While also updating python, I run into further issues of non-matching dependencie versions. Regardeless I think a update to a recent python version would be appropiate, as version 3.5.6 is at its end of life since September 2020. ¹

Could you please have a look?

Thanks for the feedback! I updated the OHW.yml, it is now based on Python 3.8.

I will close this issue as we managed to get it running on your machine 🙂
