Hi everyone
Having previously used RedHat I've just put Mandrake 9.1 on my latest
machine (ease of installation, disk partitioning). To my surprise
(naively perhaps) the standard RH-derived RPMs on the pymol site lead to
chains of missing dependencies that I don't reach the bottom of.
Eventually I got pymol working kind-of with
pymol-0.82-2mdk.i586.rpm
preceded by
python-numeric-22.0-2mdk.i586.rpm
I dealt with some Tkinter error messages by installing the appropriate rpm
but now I have
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/pymol/modules/pymol/__init__.py",
lin
e 74, in exec_str

from AbstractApp import AbstractApp
File
"/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/pymol/modules/pmg_tk/AbstractApp.py",
line 16, in ?
import Pmw
ImportError: No module named Pmw
How to proceed?
2) More generally, am I doomed to use out-of-date versions of programs
(pymol and perhaps others), having made myself dependent on
Mandrake-specific rpms that won't keep up with new releases? The
dependency chains when trying to install RH rpms were quite tricky and
included some complaints about libraries that I could even see in /lib !
That completely flummoxed me.
Thanks in advance
Daniel
