[Rdkit-discuss] Fwd: conda / Windows update to 2016.09 release gives error

Curt, If you change lines 32 and 33 in /lib/site-packages\rdkit\RDConfig.py to: condaDir += ['Library', 'share', 'RDKit'] _share = os.path.join(*condaDir) I think it should work. Sorry for the inconvenience here; we will fix it before running the next conda builds. -greg On Wed, Jan 4,
