Peter, I just wanted to confirm that manually installing the dependencies does work. I'm up and running on Yosemite with Mnemosyne 2.3.4. I kind of muddled my way through it, since I'm not too familiar with some of the program dependencies/python package managers, but it's working fine now. Here's what I did if anyone is interested. (Note: there are probably some unneeded steps here but I wanted to include everything I did). Feel free to point out the errors: 1. Install Homebrew 2. brew install pyqt (this and below commands are done from the terminal unless otherwise noted) 3. brew link --overwrite python 4. brew linkapps qt 5. cd ~ 6. subl .bashrc (this open the .bashrc file in sublime; if you don't have sublime installed, just open it in your text editor of choice) 7. Paste this into the .bashrc file: PYTHONPATH=/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages:$PYTHONPATH 8. pip2 install matplotlib (we're back in the terminal now) 9. curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/ez_setup.py -o - | python 10. easy_install cherrypy 11. easy_install webob 12. Now download the Linux distro of Mnemosyne-2.3.4, unpack, and navigate to that directory in your terminal 13. python setup.py install 14. Now navigate out of that folder, to any other folder on your machine 15. From the terminal, run this command: mnemosyne Oh yes..I already had python installed on my machine, so for those of you who don't you may have to run "brew install python" before step two. Anyway, hope someone finds this helpful. Good luck and let me know if I can help with anything. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "mnemosyne-proj-users" group.
