I removed the epics folder and now I don't have any warning messages. Thank you 
for your help.

Sorry, my fault.  I've been playing with using Larch and Epics together.  This 
is fun, but I haven't been careful about the separation.

For a quick fix, you can just delete the plugins/epics folder (from the 
installation directory /usr/share/larch/plugins).  There is nothing in there 
you'll need if you're not using Epics.

I think the "best solution" is for me to make a way for entire folders of 
plugins to be loaded only if some set of dependencies are also installed.  That 
would be useful for making plugins for, say, PyMCA, or reading spec files or 
whatever.
