| * If you need to install other packages you wish to use in concert with EMAN2, you will need to install them within the EMAN2 conda environment. Be warned that sometimes installing another package may trigger a version change in one of EMAN2's dependencies, which may or may not be a problem, depending on which dependency it is. We strongly suggest getting the base EMAN2 installed and working first, before trying to install any additional packages within the same conda environment. If you don't need to use EMAN2 and the other package in the same environment, we suggest making a separate environment for the other software. | * If you need to install other packages you wish to use in concert with EMAN2, you will need to install them within the EMAN2 conda environment.

| | <note>If you are installing EMAN2 on a Windows 11 machine, you __must__ install and set up [[https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install|WSL2]] first! EMAN2 is installed from the WSL2 terminal (Ubuntu on Windows) once WSL2 is set up. Setting up WSL2 is not part of these instructions and this same WSL2 can be used to install other Linux software on your Win 11 machine once set up. You will need to install the compilation tools under WSL2 as well.</note> |
