In building TPP 4.6.1 on centos 6.3, I encountered this error (highlighted
in red):
.... {1000s of previous lines not shown}

However, I just chmod 777 -R the /usr/local/tpp directory, and it din't
complain. Then, I deleted the offending link in the tpp folder (it was a
weird "bin" folder that was linked to itself"). I ran ./tandem.sh and it
gave me the normal greeting message etc.
Is this ok? Is this "normal" behaviour? Why do we have circular links?
Note: The only thing that I definitely did different was that I did NOT
create the " /usr/local/src/TPP-4.5.2/src/Makefile.config.incl" file
specified here:
http://tools.proteomecenter.org/wiki/index.php?title=TPP_4.5.2:_Installing_on_Ubuntu_10.04.3
I did have, though, the boost libraries seemingly installed in the default
distribution of centos 6.3 and they were relatively recent. Is this
makefile.config.incl asbsolutely required? (I didn't include it because I
had a hard time figuring out what should be the location for my boost
libraries -- I couldn't find exact corresponding entries, so I thought I'd
first see if this file was truly needed.....). Since the make kept going,
I'm assuming that I didn't run into any serious and/or fatal errors....and
I don't think this lack of makefile.config.incl is related to teh "Too many
levels of symbolic links" errors, above, right?
