Installation fails using pixi

[jhmeinke]

pixi is an alternative to conda for managing software environments. Installing dpnp using pixi should work with the following commands:

mkdir dpnp    
cd dpnp
# initialize a pixi environment
pixi init
# add the Intel channel as default channel
pixi workspace channel add --prepend https://software.repos.intel.com/python/conda/
# add the newest available version of dpnp to the environment
pixi add dpnp 

Instead I get the following error message:

Error:   × failed to solve requirements of environment 'default' for platform 'linux-64'
  ├─▶   × failed to solve the environment
  │   
  ╰─▶ encountered duplicate records for intel-gpu-ocl-icd-system-1.0.0-h6d3a17d_2.conda

and in fact there are two entries for intel-gpu-ocl-icd-system-1.0.0-h6d3a17d_2.conda in repodata.json.

The last version to install correctly is 0.15.0. If I uses pixi add dpnp=0.15.0 the installation succeeds:

pixi add dpnp=0.15.0
pixi run python -c 'import dpnp;print(dpnp.__version__)'
0.15.0
