it would be nice if this actually worked. for example, python3-cheetah is available in debian10 but not in debian9. python-pyserial and python-pyusb are not available in centos7. so there are some operating system releases in which you must do a 'pip install' (debian9) or pull something from epel (centos8) before weewx will run. unless the package does all of the dependencies for them (or if they want additional python modules), users face the dilemma of "do i use the native packaging or do i use pip" when manually installing python dependencies. there seem to be many options, but no unified approach -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-development" group.
