Re: [Paparazzi-devel] Happy Holidays ... I have trouble following install directions : - )

[David Conger]

Hello Gautier...
I did not mention earlier but I did try the opam route ... without
success seems Ivy issue but I could not find success with searching
archives.

Got the paparazz-dev from the do it all yourself info...I am happy to
hack away and did for hours but well it would be faster to just
reinstall the OS that is supported so it's ok.

I am not strongly attached to any Linux distro so to be honest if
there is one that is just easier than another I'm backing up my files
down to install it. I will make sure it's an 18.xx if it's Ubuntu
based. : - )

FWIW: For work I write a lot of Python3 things now mostly database
interactions things with Oracle using cx_Oracle but json and re and
other fun things inside to do automation things. Once installed and
working I hope to dig inside and see if there are low hanging fruit I
can be helpful with. I need something challenging to force me to learn
more complex Python things. If you can name something that is needing
attention let me know I'll be glad to work on it.
