Description:
See https://forums.inedo.com/topic/4855/conda-add-track_features-and-app_own_environment-to-repodata-json-output-s/3 * A good example for "track_features" is this package: https://anaconda.org/main/_low_priority, which directly explains the idea of "track_features": packages that "activate" features (either because they have "track_features" specified themselves or because their dependencies do so) will get a lower priority. The attribute is useful when you have a GPU build and a CPU build of the same package, and you want to prioritize one over the other. * As for "app_own_environment": I only found it in the sourcecode of Anaconda Navigator - a GUI package manager for conda environments. It seems a useful feature but I cannot find any other package that uses it. May be worth looking at other fields "while we're here": https://github.com/conda/conda-build/blob/8df6493565dae517165754bd75d7d74de1522dc3/conda_build/metadata.py#L1803
