Thanks for the replies. I ended up using the pip install method. Which seems to have worked pretty well up to 4 errors (after running fipy.test()).
The errors are from: 1. Doctest: fipy.tools.dimensions.physicalField.PhysicalField.__array_wrap__ 2. Doctest: fipy.meshes.gmshMesh.GmshGrid2D._test 3. Doctest: fipy.meshes.gmshMesh.GmshGrid3D._test 4. Doctest: fipy.variables.meshVariable._MeshVariable._shapeClassAndOther Will any of these be critical errors? I don't think the first three are a big deal. I'm not sure about the last one. Cheers, Kyle On Fri, Feb 6, 2015 at 10:21 AM, Juan J.
