Nightly?

[0x00b1]

pip install --upgrade pip?

[braymp]

Same error for nightly (3cb30f4).

[braymp]

Pip is up-to-date.

[braymp]

I should mention I did not use pip install --pre cellprofiler to get CP running from source (though I assume that shouldn't matter...?)

[0x00b1]

pip install -e . from the CellProfiler source directory works too. 😄

Would you mind posting the output of pip freeze?

[braymp]

Here you go. Along with CP deps, there's a lot of Jupyter-related deps as well:

It looks like you’re missing an important package. :D

(pip install -e . from the CellProfiler source directory.)

[braymp]

Huh, that did it.

Since I was able to run CP (at least in test mode), I didn't realize that the project needed installation too.

BTW, there's a  in the About; can you get rid of it?

Yeah, it’s a silly Unicode issue. I’ll fix it today. I think @LeeKamentsky is leaving the Broad because of Unicode errors. 😆

Yep. CellProfiler is both a library and an application. 👍
