[NEST Users] Re: Problem with NEST 3.3 installation

Hi Steffen, We have Ubuntu 16.10 operating system. Python3 was installed following instructions on nest-simulator site (sudo apt install....). I think we still have Python2 vesrion on the same computer. We also keep the older vesrion of NEST 2.18. Thank you in advance, Best, Petia On Friday, July 1, 2022 at 01:54:58 PM GMT+3, Steffen Graber &lt;s.graber(a)fz-juelich.de&gt; wrote: Hi Petia, I'm trying to reproduce the issue, but still lack some information: Which operating system and version do you use? Which pytest version do you have installed? (The test seems to stumble over this). Has that been installed via PyPi or the package manager? And, is python2 still on your system? Sorry if something has already been answered in the correspondence and I have overlooked it.

Did you choose the venv or the prefix path of https://nest-simulator.readthedocs.io/en/v3.3/installation/linux_install.ht… <https://nest-simulator.readthedocs.io/en/v3.3/installation/linux_install.html#linux-install>? Are you running the `make installcheck` from the same location where the pytest-* are installed, i.e. consistently *in* the environment or *outside*?
