Issues with Anaconda

Hello! I’m new here so I hope this is the right place where to ask for help.

I’m new to Manjaro (and to Linux in general) and I tried to install Anaconda to create my python environment.
I first tried to follow Anaconda’s guide (Installing on Linux — Anaconda documentation). The installation went ok, but I couldn’t use conda commands except by logging as administrator. That seamed to be ok after all, but even as administrator I couldn’t open anaconda navigator.

I then found a topic open on this forum (Failing to install anaconda from the sh file on manjaro GNOME desktop) and tried to install anaconda from AUR.
This went ok, but now I can use the conda commands only after having typed source /opt/anaconda/bin/activate on the terminal. Conda commands seem to work and I can open the anaconda navigator, but when I try to update it it says “Cannot update Anaconda Navigator, CondaMultiError”.

Is there some way to solve these problems?

Sorry, this has nothing to do with Manjaro. Install your development tools in a local build environment as per upstream documentation. If you need help, inquire in the proper channels.
