conda install python-graphviz: stuck at Solving environment

When I tried to conda install python-graphviz in Anaconda3 on my Ubuntu machine, it stuck at Solving environment:

(base) $ conda install python-graphviz
Collecting package metadata (current_repodata.json): done
Solving environment: failed with initial frozen solve. Retrying with flexible solve.
Solving environment: failed with repodata from current_repodata.json, will retry with next repodata source.
Collecting package metadata (repodata.json): done
Solving environment: /

What's the problem?

I had the same problem. The following was my solution:

Install graphviz manually.

E.g. for ubuntu:

sudo apt install graphviz graphviz-dev

Then do a pip install for the python package.

pip install graphviz

Confusingly the pip install of graphviz is the same as the conda install of python-graphviz. (bad naming)

Typing this from my phone so better double check my commands for typos. Let me know if that solved it.
