George
Thanks for the course and for the RDkit advice. I was having a few issues,
which I traced down to the PYTHONPATH environment variables. I made the
mistake of setting them within .bashrc in the following form
export RDBASE=/home/chemuser/apps/rdkit/RDKit_2013_09_1
export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:$RDBASE:$RDBASE/lib
Since PYTHONPATH was not initially set I ended up with an environment
variable that started with : and seemed not to work. If I put $PYTHONPATH
at the end with the following line, it all seems OK.
export PYTHONPATH=$RDBASE:$RDBASE/lib:$PYTHONPATH
For my Debian based system (Crunchbang Linux 32 bit VM) I documented the
installation for RDKit and the ipython notebook as completely as I could.
I will send these notes shortly, just in case they are useful to other
users.
