I had an opportunity to build coot executable on a fresh ubuntu box. It

you install few dependencies but I noticed the following:
1) it seems that coot won't work without CCP4.
"Without CCP4" is slightly ambiguous. Let's imagine that you mean "have CCP4 setup and
added to the path"
It won't load mtz files - complained that
the map file wasn't proper format.
That is not the intention. I routinely use coot without having setup CCP4.
Was it complaining about the extension?
2) Even after I installed CCP4, it wants me to have ccp4 configuration script
sourced or it
won't refine even amino acids in real space.
Hmm... That sounds like the Refmac monomer library is not correctly installed then and is
consistent with 1).
I was under impression that in the past
standard amino acids were accessible even if ccp4 monomer libraries cannot be
reached.
A typical coot build will try to find monomer library entries in
$prefix/lib/data/monomers
Maybe it changed.
Not intentionally.
None of this is a big deal, just surprising. Obviously, having coot installed
without ccp4
is a bit unusual, although having a standalone coot (say, for teaching purposes
on a flash
drive) is not completely unimaginable.
