        ```

    -   Install dependencies

        **PythonExtensionsCollection** requires some additional Python
        libraries. Before you install the cloned repository sources you
        have to install the dependencies manually. The names of all
        related packages you can find in the file `requirements.txt` in
        the repository root folder. Use pip to install them:

        ``` 
        pip install -r ./requirements.txt
        ```

        Additionally install **LaTeX** (recommended: TeX Live). This is
        used to render the documentation.

    -   Configure dependencies

        The installation of **PythonExtensionsCollection** includes to
        generate the documentation in PDF format. This is done by an
        application called **GenPackageDoc**, that is part of the
        installation dependencies (see `requirements.txt`).

        **GenPackageDoc** uses **LaTeX** to generate the documentation
        in PDF format. Therefore **GenPackageDoc** needs to know where
        to find **LaTeX**. This is defined in the **GenPackageDoc**
        configuration file

        ``` 
        packagedoc\packagedoc_config.json
        ```

        Before you start the installation you have to introduce the
        following environment variable, that is used in
        `packagedoc_config.json`:

        -   `GENDOC_LATEXPATH` : path to `pdflatex` executable

    -   Use the following command to install the
        **PythonExtensionsCollection**:

        ``` 
        setup.py install
        ```
