Hi Tony, Yes, Galaxy will install a whole functional python version. At runtime, Galaxy source some env.sh files according to the different requirements and the bunch of requirement dependencies. Using the tool_dependencies, indeed, Galaxy sets almost a dedicated environment for the tools. The purpose is the same with the new system Conda. But in this case, Conda can create environment natively I hope I answered to your question.

I have galaxy server 15.10 running on Ubuntu 14.04, which has python 2.7.5.
I was in the process of adding matplotlib from the toolchest. It has a dependency on package_python_2_7.
Before proceeding, I'd like to understand a bit how that works. Does that install a whole new python, and how then does it get invoked?
