Ubuntu Python

Installing

First install python, setuptools, easy_install, and pip:

sudo apt-get install -y python python-setuptools python-pip

Now change permissions so we can run pip without sudo:

sudo usermod -g staff charles
sudo chmod g+w /usr
sudo chmod -R g+w /usr/local

Now install useful stuff:

pip install flask numpy scipy pandas h5py pytables xlrd xlwt pelican
