@conda-forge/core can you have a look at this? Are these known issues?

@conda-forge/core any ideas how to update visual-studio?

fatal error C1189: #error:  "Qt requires at least Visual Studio 2019 version 16.7 (VC++ version 14.27). Please upgrade."

The issue is that the conda packages for newer compilers have not been installed. See here where it identifies that vs2017_win-64 is installed. The metapackage compilers will bring in vs2019, the current standard for conda builds on Windows.

Eventually the compilers package is to be upgraded to vs2022 and support both x86-64 and arm64 builds.

Looks like another issue now, with the command interpreter failing due to some input line too long.

To get conda environments to work on Windows runners I have had to specify the shell as cmd /C CALL {0} as shown here.

I forked it and got it working by removing {{ compiler("cxx") }} macro and replacing it with compilers package for all platforms: oursland@f052a51
