Error building docker image for project using PyCall

[alenskorobogatova]

I want to build Docker image for my project, that is using PyCall.
I get following error:

ERROR: Error building `PyCall`:

I wouldn't use Conda at all, I would install Python stuff separately in your image and tell PyCall to use that, setting the PYTHON environment variable if necessary. (Using the system Python is the default on Unix systems other than MacOS.)

See, for example: https://github.com/mitmath/binder-env

(In any case, closing this issue as it has nothing to do with PyCall per se, but rather has to do with Conda.jl.)
