Hi all, I'm having trouble installing FiPy on my Ubuntu OS. I've followed the installation from the website:
$ VERSION=x.y-z # choose the version you want $ apt-get install gmsh libsuperlu3 python-central python-sparse $ curl -O http://www.ctcms.nist.gov/fipy/download/python-fipy_${VERSION}_all.deb $ dpkg -i python-fipy_${VERSION}_all.deb There was an error in the apt-get line for python-central: "Package python-central is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source E: Package 'python-central' has no installation candidate" Does this package 'python-central' not exist anymore? Is there another I can download in its place? I went ahead with the curl and dpkg commands. I got some more errors. "kblawlor@wizrd:~$ sudo dpkg -i python-fipy_${VERSION}_all.deb Selecting previously unselected package python-fipy. (Reading database ... 194884 files and directories currently installed.) Preparing to unpack python-fipy_3.1-1_all.deb ... Unpacking python-fipy (3.1-1) ... dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of python-fipy: python-fipy depends on python-numpy; however: Package python-numpy is not installed. python-fipy depends on python-sparse (>= 1.1); however: Package python-sparse is not installed. python-fipy depends on python-matplotlib; however: Package python-matplotlib is not installed. python-fipy depends on python-scipy; however: Package python-scipy is not installed. python-fipy depends on gmsh; however: Package gmsh is not installed. dpkg: error processing package python-fipy (--install): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured Errors were encountered while processing: python-fipy" These dependency problems are probably related to not having 'python-central'. Any pointers? Thanks, Kyle
