Science Environment Updated to 25.0714

25.0714

• Fix notebook scrolling jumps (caused by jupyterlab-myst) by setting a default windowing mode in the notebook app.
• Change location of installed software to allow for portability. Lock files are now under LOCK_DIR=$ENV_DIR/lock
• Add a script update-notebooks.sh that the user can run instead of doing the update at startup (can slow the startup).

---

As usual, the science environment release notes can be found in:

• The fornax-images github repo.
• The Science Console under the Fornax menu: Fornax -> About -> Containers Release Notes

@Abdu Thanks for the updates!
Can you please elaborate on the update-notebooks.sh ? Where is it, what does it do and when should we use it? I looked for it, but don’t see it in any of the places I thought to look.

It is available from the terminal.
It just ensures the notebooks in ~/fornax-notebooks are up to date from github.

The plan is to add the menu item: ‘Fornax → Update Notebooks’ to achieve the same thing.

Thanks for fixing those scrolling jumps, that was frustrating!
