Hola, We are attempting to install Galaxy, from git, version 17.05 We largely have it installed, but seem to be falling over at the installation of dependencies. In particular, conda via Galaxy can't find Gnuplot 4.6, and the conda libraries don't show a gnuplot < 5.x The error: 10.126.160.84 - - [11/Aug/2017:13:49:08 +1100] "GET /galaxy/admin/manage_tool_dependencies HTTP/1.1" 200 - "http://<server>/galaxy/admin" "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_12_6) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/60.0.3112.90 Safari/537.36" [pid: 24515|app: 0|req: 3/4] 10.126.160.84 () {66 vars in 1432 bytes} [Fri Aug 11 13:49:08 2017] GET /galaxy/admin/manage_tool_dependencies => generated 13534 bytes in 220 msecs (HTTP/1.1 200) 2 headers in 73 bytes (1 switches on core 0) galaxy.tools.deps.conda_util DEBUG 2017-08-11 13:49:12,042 Executing command: /galaxy/production_database/dependencies/_conda/bin/conda create -y --name __gnuplot@4.6 gnuplot=4.6 Fatal Python error: Py_Initialize: Unable to get the locale encoding ImportError: No module named 'encodings' Current thread 0x00007fd60463c740 (most recent call first): galaxy.tools.deps.resolvers.conda DEBUG 2017-08-11 13:49:12,070 Removing failed conda install of [CondaTarget[gnuplot,version=4.6]] galaxy.tools.deps.conda_util DEBUG 2017-08-11 13:49:12,072 Executing command: /galaxy/production_database/dependencies/_conda/bin/conda create -y --name __gnuplot@4.6 gnuplot=4.6 Fatal Python error: Py_Initialize: Unable to get the locale encoding ImportError: No module named 'encodings' Current thread 0x00007fb0d2eb6740 (most recent call first): galaxy.tools.deps.resolvers.conda DEBUG 2017-08-11 13:49:12,102 Removing failed conda install of gnuplot, version '4.6' galaxy.tools.deps.conda_util DEBUG 2017-08-11 13:49:12,106 Executing command: /galaxy/production_database/dependencies/_conda/bin/conda create -y --name __gnuplot@_uv_ gnuplot Fatal Python error: Py_Initialize: Unable to get the locale encoding ImportError: No module named 'encodings' Current thread 0x00007fc80d5df740 (most recent call first): galaxy.tools.deps.resolvers.conda DEBUG 2017-08-11 13:49:12,139 Removing failed conda install of [CondaTarget[gnuplot,unversioned]] galaxy.tools.deps.conda_util DEBUG 2017-08-11 13:49:12,142 Executing command: /galaxy/production_database/dependencies/_conda/bin/conda create -y --name __gnuplot@_uv_ gnuplot Fatal Python error: Py_Initialize: Unable to get the locale encoding ImportError: No module named 'encodings' https://anaconda.org/bioconda/gnuplot/files shows that there is a 4.6.0-1 in there, but for whatever reason it's not being found by the search function?

Found 8 packages There's no 4.6 there, hence the fail I guess. Does anyone have a work around for this? cheers L. ------ "The antidote to apocalypticism is *apocalyptic civics*. Apocalyptic civics is the insistence that we cannot ignore the truth, nor should we panic about it. It is a shared consciousness that our institutions have failed and our ecosystem is collapsing, yet we are still here — and we are creative agents who can shape our destinies. Apocalyptic civics is the conviction that the only way out is through, and the only way through is together. " *Greg Bloom* @greggish https://twitter.com/greggish/status/873177525903609857
