Software Installation

Any software installed via sudo apt-get install <software-name> should be accessible to all users. Some exceptions might occur (like conda) and some additions to the .bashrc file might be neccessary. Please drop me a text if you need to install any software which require sudo priviledges.

Python Packages

Most basic packages that we need are already installed. If some additional package needs to be installed, please use:

conda install --user <package-name>

or

pip install --user <package-name>

The conda based installation should be favoured.
