<br>
Thanks for the information.<br>
Yes, it would be great to update the Iris install script to use
this ppa.<br>
<br>
Regarding QGIS and Sahana, we need to run through the quickstarts
and check if those can be completed without errors.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
Angelos<br>

<pre wrap="">Hi All,
Ed Campbell has packaged up Iris and dependencies so that it can be
installed from apt-get:
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:drescampbell/ppa
sudo apt-get install python-iris
Does this help with some of the dependency problems? If yes, should we go
ahead and update the Iris install script to install from apt-get instead?
To what extent should I test with QGIS and Sahana? I haven't seen any
problems (including with plugins) in QGIS, but presumably I need to install
a plugin that utilises matplotlib now that the system version is at 1.2.0.
Many thanks
Ian

yes, probably. at least QGIS and Sahana are installing and
using the system's matplotlib, most likely others too.
which one gets picked up probably depends on the list
ordering in PYTHONPATH.
if you absolutely positively need the newer version, and can't
find a way to work around it, please grab the newer package
from raring and rebuild it for 12.04 LTS (not hard, just
ask if you need a hand with that)
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://packages.ubuntu.com/python-matplotlib">http://packages.ubuntu.com/python-matplotlib</a>
and then test that it doesn't break qgis, sahana,
etc.

as per earlier email, please make them into .debs.
It's easy and it helps catch when two projects
try to install different versions of the same package
or try to install files over the top of each other.
also it means there is no -dev package mess to clean up.
again, happy to help if you get stuck with it, and we
have a dir for such things at download.osgeo.org if
you need a place to store them online.
... avoiding stepping on each other's toes takes a bit
of effort and discipline seeing that many of us are using
the same tools.
thanks,
Hamish
