I've been unable to duplicate this error - it looks like the NetCDF dependency did not download for you, and was therefore missing when you tried to build Iris. It would be useful to see the whole build log to confirm this.

I've updated Iris to the most recent version and it builds correctly. I'm working on the quick start page.

Hi Ian,

"import iris" from a Python console throws an error: no module named iris

[kalxas]

Also the quickstart is pointing to an online resource... all projects should follow the template and provide some small quickstart for users to follow, even when internet connection is unavailable.

Debian packaging started with cartopy:

​https://launchpad.net/~osgeolive/+archive/ubuntu/nightly/+sourcepub/4322446/+listing-archive-extra

This way we will avoid all those unnecessary numpy builds etc, plus less build time for the iso ;)

Started Iris debian package but I am getting this error:

Thoughts?

Debian files are available here:

​https://github.com/kalxas/iris/blob/1254-deb/debian/

Dependencies are listed here: ​https://github.com/kalxas/iris/blob/1254-deb/debian/control

Am I missing something?

[kalxas]

Perhaps Iris is not compatible with python-netcdf provided with 14.04? I see that it requires netCDF4...

Hi Ian,

I have seen that you install netCDF again [11634] after my debian packages commit [11633]. Did you test the python-netcdf4 package and it is not working?

[ian]

Hi Angelos

We must have been working on this around the same time - I missed your commit when I finally did an svn up and modified install_iris.sh (I don't check my email very thoroughly on days off so I didn't see the trac update...).

I suspect you python-netcdf4 will work perfectly, could you put it back to how it was?

Great work with the packaging. I will do a proper quickstart,

Ian

Hi Ian,

No problem :) import iris is now working on the disk after the new deb packages... of course we need someone to take the new iso for a spin in order to close this ticket... ​http://aiolos.survey.ntua.gr/gisvm/dev/

Best, Angelos

[ian]

Great - will download it tonight and do some tests

[kalxas]

confirmed fixed in 8.0beta1
