Won't install on Ubuntu 16.04 #186

Per https://the-littlest-jupyterhub.readthedocs.io/en/latest/:
Or... I had also made a quick pass at updating Python on the Ubuntu 16.04-based cloud machine I was using but for some reason it continued to still use 3.5 because I probably had something not updated in a correct path. This another work-around you could consider if you cannot use Ubuntu 18.04. |
the installation docs say the specs require Ubuntu 18.04; I don't believe Ubuntu 16 is supported by TLJH But AWS does have a Free Tier eligible Ubuntu Server 18.04 LTS server available. If the option doesn't show up in the quick start choices, you just need to search for the option in the search bar when you launch an instance. |
Update the Search the docstrings of the source code and update reference to Ubuntu 16 to 18.04. |
add clarity to installation directions

I have managed to install TLJH on Ubuntu 16.04. The only thing you have to do is to start the bootstrapping with a more recent version than the one provided in Ubuntu. For instance, install Python using an anaconda distribution. Then, modify the In short, the only reason that 16.04 is not supported is that the bootstrap script uses the system python of Ubuntu. Use a more recent one instead, and everything works, as far as I can see. |
I have now made a full branch for installation on Ubuntu 16.04. There were a few more things to tweak to make it work completely. Here is the branch: https://github.com/olivierverdier/the-littlest-jupyterhub/tree/ubuntu-16-04 |
I'm trying to install tljh in Ubuntu 16.04, but I get the following error:
I see that the offending line uses a string feature ('f' prefix) that is not available in python 3.5, which is the most recent python in Ubuntu 16.04.
