I want to do this to test the build before uploading to binstar and want to keep anaconda's global environments clean because multiple users use the same root environment.\r\n\r\n$ conda info:\r\nplatform : linux-64\r\nconda version : 3.11.0\r\nconda-build version : 1.12.1\r\npython version : 2.7.9.final.0"}}
