I'm having trouble getting the examples to work on the VirtualBox VM. run_dha_example gives me "None" every time. I've ran the client.execute with --timing=True and --pretty=False with the same results. Am I doing something stupid? :)

I got the VM up but can't get it to do anything useful.. No next steps after getting the VM up..?? Also, I would be very nice to have a more granular install.. I just spent the day fixing my system after attempting a native install on Ubuntu 13.10 (still have more to repair) A list of prerequisites would be better that the current unified install...

Once you have the VM up, you can try running demo scripts, located at ~/bayesdb/examples//.py after you've checked out and pulled master from ~/bayesdb and ~/crosscat.

Yes, the install process is a pain in the current release (sorry!), but the next release (almost ready) will be much more friendly and granular to install.

Hi, sorry for the trouble, and thanks for the bug report! If you git checkout master and git pull both the crosscat and BayesDB repos (at ~/crosscat and ~/bayesdb on the VM), this issue will be fixed. We are working on pushing a new VM where the proper commits will be checked out already.
