Hi all,

Just popping in here to confirm that the workflow suggested by Clemens
below, is indeed the way to go. 
This night, I was able to compile coot on WSL1/Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. 

Don't hesitate if there is a need for sharing binaries and/or tips -
although I don't think I did something special. 

Thank you Paul for all the hard work!

Kind regards,
Erwin

Aaah - that was the bit of information missing: one needs to look at the
"refinement" branch [1] to get not only the latest sources, but also the
latest build-it script [2] (as linked to from [3]).

Once this is clear, the information on the Coot home page starts becoming
clear as well :-)

Indeed.

Which is why I'm trying to get my head around the ability to create them
myself :-)

Thanks.
