It would be nice to use ability to install new packages via conda package manager (https://conda.io/docs/intro.html) in online Kaggle kernels.

@mlisovyi You can now pip install packages from the settings tab in Kernels.

pip is nice, but it seems to have a different selection of packages. For example, in context of an attempt to install vowpalwabbit python package via the same pip interface, I would want to pre-install boost (a newer version than 0.1, that i see installed), libboost and py-boost. This can be done "easily" via conda: conda install -c anaconda boost ("easily" = "it worked locally on my machine"), but i did not manage to get those packages via pip installation.

Yeah, it would be nice to have both. Thanks for the suggestion! In the meantime, if there's a package you would like feel free to make a pull request and add it to the Dockerfile.
