<div dir="ltr">Hello,<div><br></div><div>I am trying to help a colleague get IPython Notebook running on a mac. I use Ubuntu, and I've lost track of everything I did to get IPython running on my machine. Right now, I can get IPython Notebook working in a virtual environment by running the following commands:</div>
<div><br></div><div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"> ~$ mkdir test_ipython</div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"> ~$ cd test_ipython</div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">
~/test_ipython$ virtualenv -p python3.3 venv</div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"> ~/test_ipython$ source venv/bin/activate</div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"> (venv)~/test_ipython$ pip install ipython[all]==1.1.0</div>
</div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">After this, I can run `ipython --version` and I see `1.1.0`, and I can run `ipython notebook` successfully from an activated virtual environment.</div>
<div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">My colleague is having issues, I believe, with pyzmq. Can someone clarify what is wrong with these instructions, or what he needs to do to his overall system to make these instructions work? He has python2.7 and python3.3 installed on his system.</div>
<div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">Also, I am quite new to the list, and if this kind of question really belongs on Stack Overflow please let me know. I've been hunting around for a while, but there are so many installation instructions for various versions of IPython, and so many dependencies that I get lost pretty quickly in the existing documentation.</div>
<div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">Thank you,</div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">
