Hi Andreas Thanks a lot for your enthusiasm and constant help !
I think the reason why I still use pip is historical: initially I had a single script to install the python libraries on Mac OS X and Unix. However, I imagine that currently the best is to use as much as possible the OS-dependent package managers (apt-get, brew), so I will be pleased to replace this by apt-get and brew packages (in separate files). Would this be OK ? Cheers Jacques Aix-Marseille Université (AMU). Lab. Theory and Approaches of Genomic Complexity (TAGC) INSERM Unit UMR_S 1090, 163, Avenue de Luminy, 13288 MARSEILLE cedex 09.
