Python2¶
The Python language intepreter, version 2.
| System | Package |
|---|---|
| BSD Ports | lang/python |
| Debian/Ubuntu | python |
| Homebrew | python |
| RedHat/CentOS | python |
Note: the super-build requires the development version of
Python, which provides the Python headers. In some systems, this is
installed as a separate package, e.g., python-dev in Debian/Ubuntu
and python-devel in CentOS.
Windows¶
Windows is a little more difficult to set up, particularly if the modules require building from source. See these links for an easier alternative:
Either download separate wheel packages from the above link, or pip
install needed packages; ensure downloaded packages are 64-bit if
using 64-bit Python. In either case, the pip tool is
required to install the packages.
