OSX 10.9 packaging faults

[Owen Arnold]

One of our users has complained that the 10.9 package isn't allowing him to use the ipython notebook. We've tracked this down to a packaging fault. See Error from ​http://builds.mantidproject.org/job/master_clean/label=osx-10.9-build/405/console

01:52:42 cp: /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/_markerlib/: No such file or directory
01:52:42 cp: /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/backports: No such file or directory
01:52:42 cp: /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/certifi: No such file or directory
01:52:42 cp: /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/tornado: No such file or directory
01:52:42 cp: /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/psutil: No such file or directory

This is probably because these are missing from the build servers.

• Fix the packaging script so that it fails noisily if any of these are missing rather than continuing
• Install missing packages on the build servers
• Check that the IPython notebook can be started up and runs according to the instructions here http://www.mantidproject.org/Using_IPython_Notebook

I updated the installation instructions to include sudo pip install ipython[notebook] instead of sudo pip install ipython. We don't need to copy over _markerlib since it's a matplotlib dependency and matplotlib comes with OSX 10.9+.

Refs #11482. Packaging fails if a python file is missing.

This is being verified as ​pull request #606.

@quantumsteve I can start the IPython Notebook, however I would not be able to use this with Mantid. If I modify the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH as per our existing [instructions](http://www.mantidproject.org/Using_IPython_Notebook), I get this:


We need to be able to load the plugins and core mantid libraries so that we can use them with the notebook, but clearly dragging in the libJPeg is a mistake in this case.

[Steven Hahn]

@OwenArnold If you unset your DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH, can you then load the Mantid libraries?

hdf4 depends on libjpeg, which is installed by homebrew. Setting your DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH causes some system libraries to find this libjpeg instead of the system library.

[Owen Arnold]

@quantumsteve. Yes it does work now without any need to modify the library paths. Could you please update the wiki documentation so that there is a 10.9+ section (or do it by Mantid version) in the OSX heading. We can remove the current instructions for OSX when the release is out.
