Issue DM-7051: conda installation from the stack channel brings in astropy 1.2
If you do a conda install of lsst_sims from http://conda.lsst.codes/sims you get astropy-1.1.1. If you do the same install from http://conda.lsst.codes/stack you get astropy-1.2.1. This is a problem for the sims stack since the sncosmo package (on which we depend for our simulations of supernova light curves) is sensitive to which version of astropy you are running. Was it intentional that the two channels deliver different versions of astropy?
