I am working from an AWS SageMaker Notebook Instance. For installation of most packages for my project, conda fails to install using frozen install:

conda install -c conda-forge geopandas
Collecting package metadata (current_repodata.json): done
Solving environment: failed with initial frozen solve. Retrying with flexible solv
e.

This takes several minutes… Is there a way to option conda to install by first trying the flexible solve?
