The idea is that you untar the binary tar file and put /somewhere/coot-something/bin in your PATH. That's it. You shouldn't need to edit any coot files. Coot is compiled and distributed with its own python, so setting PYTHON to the system one will upset it, because the system python doesn't know about the coot module. Keeping on top of making binaries is the majority of a full-time job itself and I just have not been able to manage it. I can make binaries for the computers I use that are connected to the internet - i.e. the Scientific Linux build. Maybe one day things will change. But at the moment it's just sad times. The options are, pick it up from CCP4 or compile it yourself. Regards, Paul. I got coot-0.9.7-binary-Linux-x86_64-centos-7-python-gtk2.tar.gz There is no README file in the top directory.
