Bug Report: Missing Requirements File for xhal?

bdorney commented 6 years ago

Brief summary of issue

On the P5 machine I've come across a few problems trying to use the v3 electronics. The release instructions are not successful see updated comments in issue #55.

I have been using the cc7 virtual machine gemvm-daqcc7

After compiling all libraries on gem904qc8daq (os: cc7) and placing them in:

$XHAL_ROOT/lib/arm
$XHAL_ROOT/lib/x86_64

Trying to run reg_interface.py seems to generate the following import errors:

ImportError: No module named lxml.etree
ImportError: No module named cmd

The vm mentioned and the cc7 DAQ machines in 904 seem to use python v2.7.5 while the daq machines in 904 seem to have these packages installed by default?

Types of issue

[X] Bug report (report an issue with the code)
[ ] Feature request (request for change which adds functionality)

Expected Behavior

We should have a requirements file to assist with system installation.

Current Behavior

No requirements file is present.

Possible Solution (for bugs)

Add a requirements file.

Context (for feature requests)

Takes awhile to setup the code or a new release.
