RDkit dependency

[Tristan Croll]

The following bug report has been submitted:
Platform:        Linux-3.10.0-1160.25.1.el7.x86_64-x86_64-with-glibc2.17
ChimeraX Version: 1.3.dev202109080319 (2021-09-08 03:19:35 UTC)
Description
Some pretty big news I just discovered: since March this year, RDKit is now available on PyPI (for all three OSes). Previously only available on Conda. It has a whole lot of functionality for working with small molecules that would be super useful (robust molecule similarity/substructure matching, chirality detection, SMILES I/O, 2D drawing generation, conformer generation, etc. etc.). Any objections to my adding it as a dependency for ISOLDE? More generally, it might be sensible to add it as a standard ChimeraX component?

[Eric Pettersen]

I don't see why there would be an issue making it an ISOLDE dependency.

Is the documentation here: ​https://pypi.org/project/rdkit-pypi/ simply incorrect? That documentation implies no Windows wheel.

If RDkit is available for all three platforms without compiling, it would certainly add a bunch of powerful capabilities (that would take some work to expose of course).

[Tristan Croll]

Yeah - looks like that's out of date. If you look at the actual download files (https://pypi.org/project/rdkit-pypi/#files) the Windows build is there too.
