How to handle failing shapely installation?

[gplssm]

Installation of oemof.db requires the package shapely to be installed. The installation of shapely via pip3 fails with following message

OSError: Could not find library geos_c or load any of its variants ['libgeos_c.so.1', 'libgeos_c.so']

Available solutions (Workarounds)

• For Linux: sudo apt-get install libgeos-dev
• Windows: please add if you know about (it was something with the installation of libgeos from pre-built binary package)

This enables us to regularly install shapely via pip3 install shapely.

How can we automize this solution/workaround to enable new users to smoothly install oemof.db?

Shapely is no longer a requirement of oemof.db.
