Installing numpy in the virtual environment If I type deactivate, then type pip, we see that pip is only installed in the virtual environment, sweet! Typing pip now shows that it is installed. Now, to activate the virtualEnv, type source firstEnv/bin/activate. It turns out that the -no-site-packages is deprecated, since this is now the default behavior, but it doesn't seem to have done any harm. This way, any pip installation I have should only reside inside a particular virtualenv (not sure this is true, but worth a try.)
#Apt get install ipython download
I'm going to use pip to download and install python packages inside the virtual environment, so I'll use easy_install to set up my virtualenv. I've decided to keep python packages compartmentalized from the system installation by using virtualenv, so my first step will be to install it (instructions at ). Since I'm on a roll, I decided to install two new fancy tools that look cool:īoth of them work, and ipython notebook looks dope! Use apt-cache show ipython to show package information about ipython (or any other package)Īpt-cache depends ipython to show what packages ipython depends on.Īpt-cache search ipython to search available packages for 'ipython' Wow, that was a lot easier than virtualenv. Testing ipython, numpy, and pylab (matplotlib): (This resulted in installing 1.6.1, which I am not thrilled about, since 1.6.2 is already out.)
#Apt get install ipython update
First thing, I ran update manager (click the icon at the top of the dock and type 'update manager.' To add the terminal to the dock, type 'terminal' and drag the icon to the dock, this is where we will type the following commands.) After all the updates, I restarted. I opted to reinstall ubuntu 12.04 fresh, and start the process over with no virtual environments.
I found dealing with virtual environments just too annoying (see below). Setting up numpy, matplotlib, wxPython, ipython, etc. First day starting installation on my new Toshiba Z835 ultrabook! I already installed Ubuntu 12.04 on a partition using the windows installer (after creating a startup disk on a 16 Gb usb drive, 8 Gb is not enough.)
