This page lists the packages (usually) installed in the LSCE-IPSL CDAT versions that are not available in the standard UV-CDAT (i.e. there are no ccmake configuration switches to get them installed).

• Web site: http://labix.org/python-dateutil
• Required by: pandas

• Bundled with another package?
• A newer version of python-dateutil was installed during pandas installation in the old CDAT 1.5.1…

Check the installed version with: python -c 'import dateutil; print dateutil.__version__'

Bundled?

Check the installed version with: python -c 'import pytz; print pytz.__version__'

• Dependencies:
  • numpy >= 1.7.0
  • python_dateutil >= 1.5
  • pytz
• Optional dependencies (http://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/version/0.16.2/install.html#dependencies): not checked!
• pip install pandas
  • JYP install: setenv mydate `date +“%Y%m%d_%H%M”` ; setenv mylogf $ALL_LOGS_DIR/pandas_install_${CDAT_ID}_${mydate}.log ; ( /usr/bin/nohup /usr/bin/time pip install pandas > & $mylogf & ) ; sleep 10 ; tail -n +1 -f $mylogf

• Web site: http://scitools.org.uk/cartopy/

• HOWTO: http://scitools.org.uk/cartopy/docs/latest/installing.html#installing
• Checked that the non standard requirements were already installed, or installed them:
  • geos >= 3.3.3
  • shapely >= 1.1.4
    • Cartopy actually required a more recent version of shapely and installed it automatically
  • pyshp >= 1.1.4
  • proj4 >= 4.8.0
  • six >= 1.3.0
• Optional dependencies (http://scitools.org.uk/cartopy/docs/latest/installing.html#optional-dependencies): not checked!
• pip install cartopy
  • Check proj4 if there is a *proj* related error
  • The installation may bump shapely to a newer version: e.g. 1.3.2 to 1.5.8
    • Shapely seems to have non-blocking Cython speedup compilation errors

Check the installed version with: python -c 'import cartopy; print cartopy.__version__'

• Web site: http://trac.osgeo.org/geos/
• Required by: cartopy
• Bundled with CDAT if we use -D CDAT_BUILD_BASEMAP=ON ([INFO] Setting build package – GEOS ON – as required by basemap)

Check the installed version with: which geos-config and geos-config –version

• Web site: https://code.google.com/p/pyshp/
• Required by: cartopy

• pip install pyshp

Check the installed version with: python -c 'import shapefile; print shapefile.__version__'

• Web site: http://trac.osgeo.org/proj/
• Required by: cartopy

We use the PROJ.4 library already installed on the system!

Note: if proj-devel is not installed, you will get the following kind of error when trying to install Cartopy. Just install it with yum install proj-devel and try installing Cartopy again
