fixes to the installation instructions
changes to the docs/dev/environment.rst file:
- instructions should tell you to run "sudo apt-get install python-virtualenv"
- for consistency, use "sudo apt-get" rather than "apt-get"
- /path/to/new/environment is confusing. how about change this to
~/dev/virtenv
with a note that says (or whatever directory you want). - --site-packages is not supported in virtualenv, it should be --system-site-packages (maybe this has changed?)
- the instructions should tell you to run
make resources
, otherwise you get an error that local_rc doesn't exist - this needs to be added for make resources to work
apt-get install pyside-tools # for pyside-rcc command
- i am not sure, but i think you also need to run "make translations" (and for this you need "sudo apt-get install qt4-default", which is a bit unfortunate since this installs a ton of extra packages. maybe there is a more targetted package we could install?)
- at the end, the instructions should tell you that bitmask is installed in ~/dev/virtenv/bin/bitmask and should be in your path so long as you sourced dev/virtenv/bin/activate
- the instructions should tell you to run with --debug if it doesn't start
