Do you? I find installing Python packages much easier using pip then downloading a tarball. The first software I installed when I moved to a Mac was homebrew. Even Windows has winget and third part package managers like Chocolatey etc. I agree that for some customers the latter may be more convenient. But z/OS open tools has a front end too, zopen. I noticed that you have posted in the Rocket forum which is the right place to ask. I suggest waiting until CVE-2023-38545 is patched. > > Dave Jousma > > Vice President | Director, Technology Engineering > > > Fifth Third Bank | 1830 East Paris Ave, SE | MD RSCB2H | Grand Rapids, > MI 49546 > > 616.653.8429 > ________________________________ > From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU > <mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU>> on behalf of David Crayford > <dcrayf...@gmail.com <mailto:dcrayf...@gmail.com>> > Sent: Thursday, November 2, 2023 6:21:52 PM > To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU <mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU> > <IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU <mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU>> > Subject: Re: Rocket miniconda frustrations > >> On 3 Nov 2023, at 1: 59 am, Lionel B.
