Something is broken in the latest master. #176

I have a current master copy of microscope and am trying to start a deviceserver. My config file is:

!/usr/bin/env python

from microscope.devices import device import microscope.testsuite.devices as testdevices

DEVICES = [ device(testdevices.TestCamera, '127.0.0.1', 8000,), ]

but starting deviceserver config.py

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.8/bin/deviceserver", line 33, in sys.exit(load_entry_point('microscope', 'console_scripts', 'deviceserver')()) File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.8/bin/deviceserver", line 25, in importlib_load_entry_point return next(matches).load() File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.8/lib/python3.8/importlib/metadata.py", line 79, in load return functools.reduce(getattr, attrs, module) AttributeError: module 'microscope.deviceserver' has no attribute 'main'

However deviceserever does have a function main

Me and Ian fixed this now. It was a case of mixed old installations with different permissions. This was fixed by removing all previous installations (manually checking on the python library directory for microscope), and the microscope.egg-info directory on the microscope repository). and then install again.
