I have added it to our list of things to install. We can't provide an estimate of when it will be available, though.

is it possible to install openbabel yet? i tried using pip install openbabel in the bash terminal and i get : Error: SWIG failed. Is Open Babel installed? Is this normal?

I believe that openbabel is installed on our latest system image (earlgrey) that you are already currently using. However, I have not used openbabel before and cannot opine on what should happen / how to debug the errors after you try to run it.
