Re: [Freesurfer] freesurfer on debian
Hi Darren, we can't do away with the license, otherwise the hospital would line us all up and shoot us. We won't be able to post a compilable version for a while as we need to get rid of things that we are not allowed to post source for, which is a slow process (that has to go on in peoples' spare time, as we have no dedicated resources for it). I think we will post a "read-only" version that won't compile, or rather, while compile but will have some unresolved symbols in it in the near future. We do have make/configure working locally, so installing on other platforms shouldn't be too bad. We also have installed and run on debian, or at least the MIT version of it. We also had some rpms, but haven't rebuilt them in a while. cheers, Bruce On Thu, 10 Nov 2005, Darren Weber wrote: If freesurfer is adopting some kind of open-source license (hoorrah!), can we do away with the requirement for a license file?

Re: [Freesurfer] freesurfer on debian
If freesurfer is adopting some kind of open-source license (hoorrah!), can we do away with the requirement for a license file? We use the license file requests to keep track of how many people are using FreeSurfer, so probably not. Are there any components/dependencies of freesurfer that are not open-source? When it releases, there won't be. The main requirements are things like the MNI tools, GSL, and tcl/tk/tix/blt, but most of those are installed by default on most Linux distros. Does anyone have detailed instructions for a) compiling freesurfer? b) installation of freesurfer on debian? We will include instructions with the release. It will be a standard autoconf setup (configure && make && make install). I'm pretty sure it should compile on Debian without a problem. Is anyone working on creating a debian package for freesurfer? For that matter, has anyone created any rpm packages for freesurfer? That isn't in the works right now, but maybe somebody can make packages for their favorite distribution(s) and share with the rest of us. :) Debian already has a package for minc tools, see http://packages.debian.org/stable/science/minc-tools but this does not include all the MNI tools (eg, n3 and mritotal). We're currently compiling against 1.4, if that helps you plan ahead. -- Kevin Teich ___ Freesurfer mailing list Freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu https://mail.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/mailman/listinfo/freesurfer
