    error: can't create or remove files in install directory
    
    The following error occurred while trying to add or remove files in the
    installation directory:
    
        [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/opt/conda/envs/qcodes/lib/python3.8/site-packages/test-easy-install-2313.write-test'
    
    The installation directory you specified (via --install-dir, --prefix, or
    the distutils default setting) was:
    
        /opt/conda/envs/qcodes/lib/python3.8/site-packages/
    
    Perhaps your account does not have write access to this directory?  If the
    installation directory is a system-owned directory, you may need to sign in
    as the administrator or "root" account.  If you do not have administrative
    access to this machine, you may wish to choose a different installation
    directory, preferably one that is listed in your PYTHONPATH environment
    variable.
    
    For information on other options, you may wish to consult the
    documentation at:
    
      https://setuptools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/deprecated/easy_install.html
    
    Please make the appropriate changes for your system and try again.

Why not just move it into the dockerfile ?

Why not just move it into the dockerfile ?

don't know, honestly. I think because it then becomes "part of the container" so that for every new branch one'd need either a new container or call "pip install -e ." anyway. I know too little about containers to give a good answer))
