Re: [IBMiOSS] Error installing pandas

I'm assuming you're using the 5733OPS Python (since neither Perzl nor
IseriesPython package pip), though not sure if you're using 3.4 or 2.7
(possibly 2.7, since you said pip and not pip3). I don't see any details
about what went wrong on the list. Pete Helgren emailed me about the
problem and mentioned NumPy and Pillow as being problematic, but I don't
know where he got this information (off-list message?).

Anyway, looking at the requirements for Pandas, NumPy seems to be the only
problematic one (pytz and python-dateutil are contain no C code (and are
Python 2/3 agnostic), since they list a "py2-py3-non-any.whl" package.
NumPy doesn't depend on any other Python packages, but it does have native
code and has a few external dependencies (
http://www.scipy.org/scipylib/building/linux.html):

Before building, you will also need to install packages that NumPy and
SciPy depend on
1) BLAS and LAPACK libraries (optional but strongly recommended for NumPy,
required for SciPy): typically ATLAS + LAPACK, or MKL, or ACML
2) C and Fortran compilers (typically gcc and gfortran).
3) Python header files (typically a package named python-dev or
python-devel)
4) Unless you are building from released source packages, the Cython
compiler is necessary (typically in a package named cython). For building
recent SciPy, it is possible that you need Cython in a newer version than
is available in your distribution.

You'll need to build and install the items from #1. For #2, gcc can be
installed via the 5733OPS option 3 scripts, though not sure if it has a
premade script for getting gfortran as well (it's available from Perzl, so
should be easy enough to whip up if it isn't). We ship the python header
files, so that's not #3 is not a problem. For #4, Cython is available
using pip.

I'm getting a traceback error trying to install pandas - http://
pandas.pydata.org/

Steps to reproduce

1. Upgrade pip to the latest version: pip install -upgrade pip
2. Install pandas: pip install pandas

Anyone else have any luck installing Pandas?
