Hi All -
I am doing a few small experiement with XUbuntu 12.04.3 and the current repos..
As some already know, I am advocating using python "distribute" / pip to add python assets
I have installed ipython (1.1) and numpy using pip and the results look good. You may
know that iPython Notebook has gained a significant user base in the science community since the
last Live release.
I went to install matplotlib, and had to add a few things.. libpng12-dev and libfreetype6-dev
which we already use...Otherwise all went well..
I notice that install_IRIS.sh has quite a few of the same dependancies as the SciPy stack,
yet uses apt to install the python assets. unless someone else jumps in, over the break I will
likely try re-arranging those install lines and see how that works out..
In general I think there is a lot of stability in using python pip to get the required packages.
