-------------------------------------- COOT FOR MANDRAKE LINUX 8.2 - HOW-TO INSTRUCTIONS Before downloading COOT files, make sure you have CCP4 setup. If you have Mandrake Linux 8.2, the Red Hat 8.0 binary for Coot will not work since some of the PNG libraries required for setup do not come with Mandrake 8.2. Instead, download the Red Hat "7.2" binary for coot and do the following: 1. Uncompress and untar the tar-zipped file. Items 2 and 3 setup the PNG library correctly. 2. cd wherever/Linux-crystltips/lib 3. ln -s /usr/lib/libpng.so libpng.so.2 4. cd wherever/Linux-crystltips/setup 3. Modify either the coot.csh (csh, tcsh shells) or coot.sh (sh, bash shells) file and define "COOT_PREFIX" and "prefix" correctly. 4. source coot.csh or source coot.sh 5. Hopefully, the setup is complete 6. Type 'coot' to get COOT running -------------
