Hi Fellows,
Kip has suggested a kludge by making links to the 64 bit libraries. I actually works as described, and the resulting coot 0.6.2 (revision 3562) does not have the known problem of the missing SVG icons the 0.7 had (see old PPSes below). Thx for all the tips, BR From: Kip Guja [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, February 10, 2012 4:40 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Coot Book of the Genesis Hi Bernhard, I hope this doesn't add your frustration, but I just wanted to let you know that I have solved a similar issue by doing the following: 1) Download coot-0.6.2-binary-Linux-x86_64-centos-5-python-gtk2.tar.gz 2) Running ./bin/coot will complain (as you noted) about libssl.so.6 3) cd to /usr/lib64 4) ls -ltr libssl.so* should list the libssl.so file you currently have installed as well as some symbolic links to it. For example, on my RHEL installation I have libssl.so.1.0.0d (your file may have a different ending, that's fine) 5) Make a symbolic link to libssl.so.1.0.0d (or whatever your version is) called libssl.so.6 by doing this: sudo ln -s libssl.so.1.0.0d libssl.so.6 6) Run ./bin/coot again...for me it then complains about libxml.so.6 7) Make another symbolic link for libxml.so.6 in the same way...if you repeat this for about 4 libraries it should stop complaining and work perfectly (or at least it does for me) I am not a programmer so I apologize if this is not the "ideal" solution, but like I said it works for me -- I hope this helps solve your problem too! Best Kip PPS: latest (32 bit?) prebuild coot-0.7-pre-1-revision-3999-binary-Linux-i386-rhel-5-python-gtk2.tar.gz After a lot of yumming Coot actually starts, but I get a lengthy error log and a version of the previously reported problem with the icon SVGs (sidebar mostly empty) PPPS: coot-0.7-pre-1-revision-3999-binary-Linux-x86_64-rhel-4-python-gtk2.tar.gz same as above with coot-0.6.2-binary-Linux-x86_64-rhel-4-gtk2.tar.gz -----Original Message----- From: Mailing list for users of COOT Crystallographic Software [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kay Diederichs Sent: Thursday, February 09, 2012 11:39 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Coot Book of the Genesis Bernhard, the CentOS5 binaries used to work well on RHEL6 /CentOS6/ SL6 ; there was a glitch a few weeks ago which was fixed after I reported it ( https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/webadmin?A2=coot;31d9d7f5.1201 ). I install the latest nightly build every couple of months / weeks, and this works very well. So for those who are not interested in learning to build coot (including me) the binaries are the way to go. If the CentOS5 binary needs libraries on RHEL6 /CentOS6/ SL6 , this can be fixed in the way that applies to all s/w packages: from the error message, find the name of the library; yum install <thatlibrary>; repeat until success. Works very well, even with a mix of 32bit and 64bit libraries. good luck, Kay __________________________________________________ Kip E. Guja, M.Sc.
