FreeSurfer and LCN Python Development
If you're a frequent python developer who uses multiple package versions or environments, please install your own local mini-conda distribution. It will give you full access and control of the installed packages.
To facilitate quick access to python utilities in the lab, a local conda distribution for internal developers is installed at /autofs/cluster/freesurfer/python/linux. To use this version, make sure all calls to python or python3 point to this install by adding the following to your PATH:
export PATH=/autofs/cluster/freesurfer/python/linux/bin:$PATH
Keep in mind there's also a python3 link in /usr/pubsw/bin, so it's important that /autofs/cluster/freesurfer/python/linux/bin comes before that in your PATH. If you want a python package installed into this distribution, email Avnish.
