Good news! Orca is no longer really the recommended way to do static image export with Plotly 😃

We have a new, pip-installable tool called Kaleido which is superior to Orca in every way, please check it out: https://medium.com/plotly/introducing-kaleido-b03c4b7b1d81

it would be nice if some standard method of installation for platform dependent components like rpm/deb packages was supported.

context: I want to save an image to disk, which I expect to be simple.

Current install methods are giving me problems: 1- currently using pip to manage dependencies not conda, not planning to learn conda, not planning to move the entire project to conda to save an image 2- npm is not working 3- appimage is bizar, I don’t intent to have a sub dependency of a library in a docker container to load kernel modules in order for me to save an image to disk. The work around is unclear and too much work to get an image from the screen to the disk.
