Cannot install Ginga and stginga from AstroConda on Windows #16

Closed pllim closed 4 years ago

pllim commented 8 years ago

As reported by @Skyhawk172, the instructions to install dependencies from AstroConda do not work on Windows. Instead this error is given, "Could not find URL http://ssb.stsci.edu/astroconda/win-64"

Temporary workaround is to use pip install instead. The following installs the latest dev commit of Ginga (at the time of this post) and latest release of stginga:

pip install git+https://github.com/ejeschke/ginga.git@100296e
pip install git+https://github.com/spacetelescope/stginga.git@0.1.2

The workaround can be used until astroconda/astroconda#17 is resolved, if possible. If not, then the installation instructions will have to be updated to reflect this limitation permanently.

After several years, I still have not heard of any official Windows support planned for astroconda, so I am closing this as won't fix. If you really want this functionality, it would have to be conda-forge, which also means publishing this package on PyPI, which you said you didn't want to do.
