I'm starting an issue to try to resolve my set up issues and to keep a record which may help others.

First, creating the oguk-calibrate-dev environment from the yml file gives a litany of errors. Basically, the dependencies loaded fine, but the pip install commands ran into a series of problems.

I was able to pip install the packages separately as follows:
$ python -m pip install git+https://github.com/PSLmodels/OG-USA.git
$ python -m pip install git+https://github.com/nikhilwoodruff/frs
$ python -m pip install git+https://github.com/PSLmodels/microdf
These three worked normally.

The OpenFisca files, I could only install them with the "--user" option (otherwise access was denied to some files):
$ python -m pip install --user git+https://github.com/nikhilwoodruff/openfisca-core
$ python -m pip install --user git+https://github.com/PSLmodels/openfisca-uk
At some point, I did need to install pathlib to get the above to work:
$ pip install pathlib

Then I follow this up with activating oguk-calibrate-dev:
$ conda activate oguk-calibrate-dev

And the pip install command:
$ pip install -e .

As the model didn't run, I uninstalled and reinstalled the oguk-calibrate-dev environment with the pip commands commented out, just in case.

I still cannot run the code, because the installed packages are not found:
(oguk-calibrate-dev) C:\Users\jonat\repos\OG-UK-Calibration>python run_og_uk.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\jonat\repos\OG-UK-Calibration\run_og_uk.py", line 6, in
from openfisca_core.model_api import Reform
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'openfisca_core'

I think the question is how to get the installed packages to be "seen", given that they are not part of the environment?

Any thoughts would be much appreciated!
