Anaconda (Python) and PyCharm on BunsenLabs/Debian

I have encountered several problems in using the standard python (2.7.9) that comes along with Debian in installing packaged I needed for my projects (e.g. PIL).

I decided therefore to turn towards anaconda.

Download the file on https://www.continuum.io/downloads#linux

Follow the installation instructions, in my case:

> bash Anaconda2-4.2.0-Linux-x86_64.sh

I installed it in the default directory (/home/giovanni/anaconda2)

Then in PyCharm (Community Edition 2016.3.2), I went to File > Settings > Project .. > Project interpreter, and I changed it on anaconda2.
