[IPython-User] User Installation of IPython Parallel Capabilities

[Erik Petigura]

Dear IPython,

I need to install IPython on a cluster where I don't have root access.  There is mac ports python2.7 installed.  I edited the ~/.pydistutils.cfg file to do user installations.

[597][petigura]$ cat ~/.pydistutils.cfg 
[install]
install_lib = ~/Library/Python/$py_version_short/site-packages
install_scripts = ~/bin

And I was able to install IPython with easy_install.

[601][petigura]$ easy_install-2.7 --upgrade ipython

However, when I tried installing pyzmq for parallel capabilities, easy_install failed.  I think it's having a hard time building zmq.  Here's the error message:

[602][petigura]$ easy_install-2.7 --upgrade pyzmq

    * If you did recently install ZMQ to a default location, 
      try rebuilding the ld cache with `sudo ldconfig`
      or specify zmq's location with `--zmq=/usr/local`
