Print a help when a package was not found #3026
Description
Problem description
Issue
When running pixi global install bla or pixi add bla you'll get an error message that is not really helping the user going forward.
> pixi add bla
Error:
× failed to solve the conda requirements of 'default' 'win-64'
╰─▶ Cannot solve the request because of: No candidates were found for bla *.
Solution
What would be much better is to execute a search and print similar packages and add a help message with options to figure out what to do next.
For example:
> pixi add bla
× No candidates were found for bla * for 'win-64'.
Did you mean one of these?
- blaz (1.2.3)
- bla-tools (0.8.1)
- bla-lib (2.1.0)
Tip: Run `pixi search bla` to explore available packages.
We have a similarity implementation in our TomlError:
