DLICV shouldn't require NiChart_DLMUSE, right? Can we verify that this works standalone? the explicit pkg_resources.require line can cause issues if the environment deviates at all from what is expected, sometimes in ways that aren't supposed to be breaking.

I meant DLICV, sorry about that.

pkg_resources is already included in most python versions i believe. I don't see any issue.
I can make it more elegant in another PR though(for all the packages as well)

@AlexanderGetka-cbica Is everything ok here?

I mean that something like pkg_resources.require("DLICV") invokes behavior which checks the environment and throws errors if versions don't match. I specifically remember that at some point, spare_scores had this line, and it was checking for exact versions of its requirements, then crashing the program at run time because the NiChart_DLMUSE environment had different package versions.

Please give this a test run in the context of NiChart_DLMUSE (current main branch) and let me know if it runs successfully. Once confirmed, this is good to merge.
