[Ifeffit] Larch install error

[Mangold, Stefan (IPS)]

Thanks, your feedback helped. Shortcuts are now created and XAS-viewer works as before...

Best regards
Stefan

Dear Matt,


I tried to install larch via Anaconda. Install of Anaconda and larch seems to work fine, but I couldn't create the Links via

larch -m

I have MacOS Sierra installed

On a similar system I installed larch half a year ago without any issues.

Oh very sorry.  I can reproduce this. I believe that an update to `pyshortcuts`  (which *will* be a good thing for the next release of Larch) has broken the current release.  (ah progress!).
I also believe that this means that Larch did get installed correctly, but that the Desktop Apps/Icons did not get made.

You should be able to do this from a Terminal command line:

      pip install pyshortcuts==1.4
      larch -m

Let me know whether that fixes it or not.
Cheers,

--Matt
