Once properly installed and configured, you will be able to use this distribution from your personal computer, your virtual machines or your containers, without installing the stack from source. Upcoming official releases of the stack would be made available in the same way.</div><div><br></div><div>I'm now looking for beta-testers and feedback from the LSST community to understand if this way of distributing the stack is useful for you. If you are adventurous enough to test, you will find detailed instructions on the one-time installation and configuration process at the address:</div><div><br></div><div><a href="https://github.com/airnandez/lsst-cvmfs">https://github.com/airnandez/lsst-cvmfs</a></div><div><br></div><div>The repository is hosted by CC-IN2P3 and is to be considered experimental.
