An installation for Windows 7ΒΆ
- Install python 2.7 following the instructions here.
- Install git following the instructions here.
- Install PostgreSQL (> 9.0) following the instructions here.
Note
Some python packages used by the clld
software have extensions coded in C. If
these packages are installed from source, the system must have a C-compiler. Without
one, trying to install such a package results in the system complaining about
vcvarsall.bat
missing.
The most straightforward way to fix this is to install the
Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python 2.7
(which requires setuptools 6.0 or later).
You can find other solutions (using the MinGW compiler or Microsoft Visual Studio) explained
in this stackoverflow thread.
Then follow the CLLD install instructions (Installation).
