[ckan-dev] RE : Trouble installing ckan

Hi Sean,

I am sorry but I didn't succeed to copy-paste content because I am using
Ubuntu with VirtualBox, so I can copy-paste from 'Ubuntu to Ubuntu' but not
from 'Ubuntu to my Mac', but perhaps there is a way to do it.

My response below :

Quite strangely, I tried the command again and I was told that ckan was
successfully installed

That's what I downloaded

 You'll find here :

the ls command result in the folder /pyenv/src/ckan, you'll see there is no
requirements folder
