Question

I have installed ScanPy and AnnData in my linux environment, but I get the following ImportError: cannot import name 'PathLike' from 'anndata.compat'

I installed the following packages: conda install seaborn scikit-learn statsmodels numba pytables conda install -c conda-forge python-igraph leidenalg pip install scanpy conda install -c bioconda anndata

These are the versions: pytables 3.6.1 igraph 0.9.2 scanpy 1.7.2 anndata 0.7.6 Python 3.7.10

When I do import anndata I get the following error:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
