Configure PyCall to use a Julia-specific Python
distribution via the Conda.jl package (which installs a private Anaconda
Python distribution), which has the advantage that packages can be installed
and kept up-to-date via Julia. As explained in the PyCall documentation,
set ENV["PYTHON"]="", run Pkg.build("PyCall"), and re-launch Julia. Then,
To install the msprime module, you can use pyimport_conda("msprime", PKG),
where PKG is the Anaconda package that contains the module msprime,
or alternatively you can use the Conda package directly (via
using Conda followed by Conda.add etcetera)
using Conda
Conda.add_channel("conda-forge")
Conda.add("msprime")Install SLiM as described on int the manula on their webpage.
The excutable is supposed to be in the PATH - otherwise specify `SLiM.slim_exec = "/path/to/excutable/slim".
