Hi,
This is going to be a long one.....

I have been attempting to set up pythonOCC on linux (Ubuntu8.04 for what 
it's worth) again, following instructions on the wiki. I'm running into 
a few problems.  First off, here's what I've done:

I followed instructions here:
http://www.pythonocc.org/wiki/index.php/Installing_OpenCASCADE_on_Linux

to install OpenCASCADE manually.

problem 1:  the link to the tar file for source on  
http://www.opencascade.org/getocc/download/loadocc/ that shows a link to 
"OpenCASCADE_src.tgz" actually goes here: 
http://www.opencascade.org/org/community/register/  and seems to be an 
infinite loop > it goes back to 
http://www.opencascade.org/getocc/download/loadocc/  once you have 
logged in. I've registered before and gotten source from OCC before, but 
this time it seemed to be a dead end.  So, I looked for the source file 
and found it here:

http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=7571&detail=0

I downloaded from this link: 
http://files.opencascade.com/OCC_6.3_release/OpenCASCADE_src.tgz

later, I found that the Mac OS X install page had this link: 
http://www.opencascade.org/ex/stats/cnt2.php?code=Occsrc63&usr=&chw=DBCLU1207924986

I was able to insall OpenCASCADE fromm the archlinux tar file last 
night.  It is located in /opt/OpenCASCADE6.3.0
I made a symbolic link /opt/occ63 because I saw a reference to that on 
the installing pythonOCC section of the wiki and wanted to make sure I 
had all my bases covered : )

I'm pretty sure everything is as it should be now.  I was able to start 
the DRAWEXE script from /opt/OpenCASCADE6.3.0/bin.

I will post more soon, as I make my way through this.

Thanks,
Dan
