Informal Usability Bug Bash: Linux installation doesn't work without virtual environments

Closed this issue 9 years ago · 4 comments

As observed during the informal internal usability bug bash, the linux installation doesn't work without virtual environments. Please update the installation instructions in all environments to use virtual environments.

FYI: this refers to the installation instructions in the generated docs for gax-pubsub

And some more context: system installation is not guaranteed to work in all environments (e.g, Linux Mac or Windows), as the system dependencies may clash with dependencies required by the gax-based library. Installing in virtualenvs is the recognized solution for this.
