Installing PyPhyloGenomics

PyPhyloGenomics has been developed in Python v2.7. The installer of PyPhyloGenomics will try to download and install all its dependencies as well. Download the latest version from here: https://github.com/carlosp420/PyPhyloGenomics/releases

To install PyPhyloGenomics use setup.py:

python setup.py build
python setup.py install

If it fails you can install the dependencies manually:
