packages for Rose 2019.01.0

[mjm]

I'm seeking to install rosie, rose and cylc on a university cluster, and am using conda to build an appropriate environment… I hope…

I have the following questions:

• I am unclear how to install pygtk (Attempts with conda install gtk2, on the conda-forge channel failed: rose check-software did not recognise it. ". not ok (unknown version)")

• I note cherrypy is in the cylc download, so have included its lib in the rose PYTHONPATH. Is that ok?

• rose check-software indicates svn 1.8 is wanted. I assume it means that and the systems current 1.7 is inadequate.

Regards
Mike

Hi Mike,

In response to your questions:

• We have never installed pygtk using conda so unable to give any advise there i'm afraid. pygtk is the one package that is very likely to give lots of grief.

• Yes that's fine to include the path to cherrypy in the rose PYTHONPATH.

• Yes you will need svn-1.8 installed.

Sorry not to have been of more help.

Regards,
Ros.
