Some help for installing modbuspy on ubuntu

[magnusm6]

I hope someone can help me because I am not a python expert. I couldn't install modbuspy package on a Windows machine so I'm planning to install ubuntu on a virtual machine. My questions are:

1. Is that ok if I install ubuntu 14.04 .1lts?
2. Is that ok if I use python 2.7.8?

thanks in advance

Both of those are fine. When you are installing, please install from github and not pip. The dependencies can however be installed from pip.

Btw. pymodbus 1.2.0 is available directly in Ubuntu: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=pymodbus&searchon=names&suite=all
