This works, but it has the old behaviour for DAVIT_PATH (where it doesn't allow you to open davitpy in the davitpy directory).
Sounds good @aburrell! You're right, the import davitpy in davitpy directory won't work on this branch since this was split from develop before #326 was merged in.
Hey @ksterne,
The change is in README.md file only. Do you still want me to test this out?
Hey @MuhammadVT, yes the only change is to the readme file, but the test is to see if the instructions for getting things going with the whole codebase are good in that readme file. Basically, fresh Ubuntu virtual machine install and see if you need to refresh the environment variables at any point during the install (so outside of what @aburrell noted).
Hey @ksterne, I have tested it on a fresh Ubuntu 16.04 virtual machine. As expected, no need to refresh the environment variables, but I had to run the following two commands sudo apt-add-repository universe_ _sudo apt-get update Before running, _sudo ./install/debiandependencies.sh In order to deal with the error message of
Unable to locate package python-pip
Sounds good @MuhammadVT, updating dependency info seems like something outside of what we should do for this repo. If you're satisfied, looks like you're the second tester...so care to merge?
Updating the install instructions in the
README.md
file as we're no longer explicitly modifying bash environment variables during the installation. Though it is true that in order for the hdw.dat data to run properly, you need to set some environment variables which has caused a lot of problems related to that. Maybe there's a bugfix coming where we need to add those to the davitpyrc file...but that's outside of this PR.Test is to run through a fresh install and don't close the terminal window at all.
