Missing dependencies about assaytools HOT 4 OPEN

@sonyahanson @jchodera Do you have any reservations about this change?

from assaytools.

These packages are not all pip-installable. If you uncomment them, you will no longer be able to install assaytools via python setup.py install because it will try (and fail) to install them by pip if you do not have them already installed.

We do have these listed in the conda package requirements, which is why we recommend people install this tool via conda. We haven't cut a release in quite some time, however.

@jchodera Thanks for explaining why those are commented out.

Do your recommend installing through conda and uninstalling to just get dependencies, and then installing assaytools from repository via python setup.py install ?

When I tried conda installing assaytools with conda, it gives an error about Python 3.5 incompatibility.

$ conda install assaytools
Fetching package metadata .............
Solving package specifications: .

UnsatisfiableError: The following specifications were found to be in conflict:
  - assaytools -> python 2.7*
  - python 3.5*
Use "conda info <package>" to see the dependencies for each package.

I think we must update the conda release, so that it at least works with Python 3.5.

Yes!

It looks like we haven't cut a new release since Python 3.5 was added. Let's create a new assaytools release.
