Hi Jachym,

There's a typo in your build script on line 67 [1]

  wget -c "https://github.com/geopython/PyWPS/aaggrchive/pywps-3.2.2.tar.gz"
                                               ^^^^

If PyWPS is not essential for one of the FOSS4G workshop then it would make sense to wait for OSGeo Live 8.5 for better testing.

Ian

I agree that PyWPS should be included in OSGeoLive in 8.5.

Having a better application to demonstrate its capabilities, or a quickstart using QGIS WPS plugin would be a nice thing to have.
Same applies for Iris, a nice demonstration is what new users will see first ;)

Best,
Angelos
