EMEN2 Dependencies

EMEN2 is dependent on several other packages. With the exception of Python, which is generally up to date and well-packaged on most systems, I recommend downloading the latest version from the project's site and installing it, or using easy_install for the package if possible. (Linux/Mac package management systems often have out of date software.)

Python 2.6+
- Note: do not use Python 3.0+
- http://www.python.org
Berkeley DB 5.0.x
- BDB is the storage and transactional backend for EMEN2
- Note: Relatively recent 4.8.2x release are probably OK as well
- http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/berkeley-db/index.html
bsddb3 5.0.x
- Python bindings for Berkeley DB
- Note: Relatively recent 4.8.2x release are probably OK as well
- http://www.jcea.es/programacion/pybsddb.htm
