osx 10.10上的Anaconda和pkg-config：如何防止pip安装问题？

Question

I'm using anaconda python 2.7, and keep finding problems installing python libraries using pip that seem to rely on pkg-config . In particular, python-igraph (although the author of that library kindly added a patch to help conda users) and louvain (which I have yet to fix).

Would installing pkg-config lead to conflicts with anaconda? Is there a way to set them up to play nice?

Thanks!

Answer 1

I faced some installation issues with Anaconda and my fix was to download manually the components of the Anaconda package.
If you use sudo apt-get python3-numpy for example, it will download as well as all the dependencies.
So all you have to do is download the major libraries.

Although I don't believe pkg-config causes conflicts with Anaconda. Give it a shot, should be easy to resolve issues if any at all.
