You can install the latest version of Manta directly from source with:
pip install git+https://github.com/fischermoseley/manta.git
!!! warning "Note for Ubuntu users:"
If you're on Ubuntu, you'll probably need to run this first to dodge
a bug in the current version of Python's `setuptools`:
```
export DEB_PYTHON_INSTALL_LAYOUT=deb_system
```
Do this before installing Manta. If you've already installed it, just
uninstall, run the above command, and then reinstall.
It's recommended to place Manta on your system path by adding export PATH="~/.local/bin:$PATH" to your .bashrc or .zshrc. This isn't strictly necessary, but it means that Manta (and any other executable Python modules) can be run as just manta on the command line, instead of python3 -m manta. If you're on Windows, this location will likely be different.
Feel free to install Manta within a virtual environment (venv, Conda, and so on) if you'd like!
Later Manta will be availabe on the PyPI lists, and you'll be able to just pip install mantaray, but that's not configured quite yet.
