Debian pls!?

Hi, is possible to get veles to run on debian testing(or)stretch ? the issue is that in debian, python2 is default by nature & py3 req.txt are all based on py3.

thx in adv.

What is your problem?

I've just installed fresh Debian 9.0 stretch, downloaded 2017.05 Ubuntu release and did:

# dpkg -i Veles_2017.05_64bit_Ubuntu1604.deb
# apt-get install -f

And got everything working.

Python 3.5 is available in Debian and is required for Veles to work.

i prefered a git install instead.

srv.py wasnt't found though i verified the location & is correctly set.

managed to link srv.py but ended up the server connection not connecting!

so, any idea's or am i forced to install the "Ubuntu" deb ver on debian?

thx.

Indeed this is not clear in README. We will update it accordingly.

Steps to get run Veles from source:

$ git clone https://github.com/codilime/veles.git
$ apt-get install cmake zlib1g-dev qtbase5-dev g++ python3 python3-venv python3-dev libffi-dev libssl-dev
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
$ make

This part is already covered.

But to run you need to create Python virtualenv:

$ python3 -m venv ~/venv/veles
$ . ~/venv/veles/bin/activate
(veles) $ pip install -r ../python/requirements.txt

(assuming you're in your build directory)

Then to run veles you need to activate python virtualenv:

$ . ~/venv/veles/bin/activate
(veles) $ ./veles

(assuming you're in your build directory)

Hope that helps.
