Line 2: Line 2:
[[EMEN2]] is dependent on several other packages. With the exception of Python, which is generally up to date and well-packaged on most systems, I recommend downloading the latest version from the project's site and installing it, or using easy_install for the package if possible. (Linux/Mac package management systems often have out of date software.)
Line 4: Line 3:
If I have specified a version, it is the minimum version I have tested EMEN2 with. I cannot guarantee success with versions earlier than noted. To run the EMEN2 server, Berkeley DB, bsddb3, and dateutil are required for basic functionality. If you want to run the web server, you will also need Twisted, Markdown, Mako, and jsonrpc. Additional server features, such as thumbnails and image analysis, are provided by EMAN2 and ImageMagick.
