title: Why is conda being called when I open up a terminal?
body: <p>I'm using Kubuntu and have installed anaconda. When I open up Konsole (the terminal), there's a slight pause before I get the command line. The slight pause is being caused by a conda process running (looking at the output of the top command). I installed the latest version of anaconda and then have used a 3.6 python environment by</p>
  
  <pre><code>conda install python=3.6
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>(I use tensorflow which doesn't use 3.7 yet)</p>
  
  <p>I have previously used older versions of anaconda to get version 3.6 and haven't seen this problem. This time however I tried to do it the recommended way as shown above.</p>
  
  <p>Why does conda run when starting up a terminal, what is it doing, and how can I stop it?</p>
  
  <p>EDIT: whats been added to my bashrc file</p>

  <p>I don't see anything there that would be called every time I open up a terminal.</p>
