I installed pcketsphinx on Anaconda using conda-forge in this way.
conda install -c conda-forge pocketsphinx
And then I got the following message
Collecting package metadata (current_repodata.json): done
Solving environment: failed with initial frozen solve. Retrying with flexible solve.

Why does it say "The following packages are not available from current channels:"?
How do I make pocketsphinx available to me?
I also tried pip install, but got an error.
pip install pocketsphinx

I'm using Anaconda3 and Python 3.7.4 and Windows 10 64bit.
I came across what looks like the same problem and was able to solve it with the following steps. Hopefully this will help you and others, at least to get started. Consider the following general points:
gcc is picking up the desired compiler. To see what compilers you have, start up a terminal window, type gcc+TAB (gcc followed by a tab). This should show all the versions you have on your system. Type gcc --version to see which version is the default. And which gcc to find out where it is located, e.g. /Users/PatrickT/miniconda/bin/gccPATH can find your compiler. This may be done by adding an export command to your bash profile. On Catalina, apparently, the bash profile information would be placed in .zshrc. To find this file, type COMMAND+SHIFT+E to make invisible files visible and look in your home directory (/Users/PatrickT in my case). For instance, add a line like export PATH="/usr/local/gcc-10/bin:$PATH". The path is of course dependent on your system. To make sure miniconda was not interfering, I took it off the PATH altogether. I also installed the latest version of xcode from the apple binaries. Once I had an updated version of the gcc compiler found by my system, I was able to install pocketsphinx as well as other programs that I was having problems with, like kaldi or zlib.
Getting miniconda to work again without interfering with gcc is a problem I haven't solved. As soon as I put miniconda back on the PATH, the default gcc reverted to the miniconda version. To be continued...
