Hi Juan,
non-root installations are always a bit more troublesome - but doable
with a little effort. However you will need at least the basic build
tools (gcc, make, etc.) on your system. There are different approaches
depending what your current system already offers, so either
(1) if there is Python (>=2.5.x and <3.x) already installed, you could
reuse the system-wide python by creating a virtual environment - see
Home · obspy/obspy Wiki · GitHub for creating such
Once you have your own virtual environment you can than use the
"easy_install" script to fetch missing packages.
Next check which dependencies are already installed via
dpkg --get-selections | grep python
Ideally you should have the following packages installed
python-setuptools
python-dev
python-lxml
python-numpy
python-scipy
python-matplotlib
If not you need to install them locally by following the instructions
at Home · obspy/obspy Wiki · GitHub
Ofc, skip the Python installation and any dependencies which is
already installed system wide. Also be sure to actually be within an
initialized virtual environment - "which python" should point to your
local python directory
(2) Install everything from source without a virtual environment.
Essentially follow Home · obspy/obspy Wiki · GitHub.
Note: Sources for ObsPy can be either checked out from trunk via
subversion (Home · obspy/obspy Wiki · GitHub) or downloaded from the
Python Package Index
(Client Challenge). But if you
follow the instructions above you don't need to download them manually
as this is done with the easy_install script.
Hope it helps,
Robert
Hi everybody,
I am a new user of obspy, I could install it my laptop which has
Ubuntu 9.04 following your instructions, for my personal computer I
have root permit, then I have not problems about instalation.
However I would like to install in my computer's office as a user
in my home directory without root permit, Do you have a tar file
of the package?
Thanks for your help
