Hello,
I installed fipy on Debian Wheezy following the manual instructions on
page 11 with two modifications. First, I had to install gmsh from the
backports repository. Second, I used version 3.0-1. Version 3.1-1 gives
the python-central error. There must be something wrong with the deb file.
Best,
Juan.

I use fipy on Ubuntu, but I have never tried to install the .deb version.
It sounds like you have all the prerequisites. Either use "pip" (which
you may have to install as "python-pip" via apt-get) or download the
source and install that directly:

It is not necessary to formally install /FiPy/
<http://www.ctcms.nist.gov/fipy/documentation/glossary.html#term-fipy>, but
if you wish to do so and you are confident that all of the requisite
packages have been installed properly, you can install it by typing:
$ pip install fipy
or by unpacking the archive and typing:
$ python setup.py install
at the command line in the base /FiPy/
<http://www.ctcms.nist.gov/fipy/documentation/glossary.html#term-fipy>
directory.

Hi, again.
A bit more information that may help diagnose the problem.
I am using the Ubuntu OS(14.04) pre-installed python.
I am able to import in my Python shell; numpy, scipy, matplotlib
and pysparse.
It seems for some reason the fipy debian file can't locate the
packages.
Currently the debian file is in my user home folder. (The standard
directory that typically would show up opening a terminal and
using ls).
Could it be the location of this file?
Cheers,
Kyle

Hi all,
I'm having trouble installing FiPy on my Ubuntu OS.
I've followed the installation from the website:
$ VERSION=x.y-z # choose the version you want
$ apt-get install gmsh libsuperlu3 python-central python-sparse
$ curl
-Ohttp://www.ctcms.nist.gov/fipy/download/python-fipy_${VERSION}_all.deb
<http://www.ctcms.nist.gov/fipy/download/python-fipy_$%7BVERSION%7D_all.deb>
$ dpkg -i python-fipy_${VERSION}_all.deb
There was an error in the apt-get line for python-central:
"Package python-central is not available, but is referred to
by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package 'python-central' has no installation candidate"
Does this package 'python-central' not exist anymore? Is there
another I can download in its place?
I went ahead with the curl and dpkg commands.
I got some more errors.
"kblawlor@wizrd:~$ sudo dpkg -i python-fipy_${VERSION}_all.deb
Selecting previously unselected package python-fipy.

python-fipy depends on python-scipy; however:

python-fipy depends on gmsh; however:

dpkg: error processing package python-fipy (--install):

These dependency problems are probably related to not having
'python-central'.
Any pointers?
Thanks,
Kyle
