Installation on Linux via PyPI

First, install ObsPy's dependencies as described here.

Then, make sure the version of distribute is recent enough (the current developer version needs at least version 0.6.21):

easy_install -U distribute

To install ObsPy packages run the following commands (see here for a list of packages available from Python Package Index):

easy_install -N obspy.core
easy_install -N obspy.mseed
easy_install -N obspy.sac
easy_install -N obspy.gse2
easy_install -N obspy.imaging
...

Notes

• Packages may be updated to a newer version using the -U option:

easy_install -N -U obspy.core

• -N: Option will prevent easy_install to resolve the dependencies on its own (can be useful if dependencies are already installed and installing them via PyPI fails).
• ==dev: The latest development version can be obtained by adding ==dev to the package name, e.g. easy_install -N obspy.sac==dev.
