Yes - well, I was using the installed /star here at JAC, which I think
is just Hikianalia. GAIA runs/displays remotely just fine on CentOS 5
and 6 - but not on 7.

UPDATE: Sarah Graves pointed me to a RHEL bug report
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1043686
regarding Tk apps failing - seems by default KDE tries to apply its
colour settings to non-KDE apps. If you turn that off, GAIA now works.
Sorry for the bother.

Building in /export/data/hps/starlink-hikianalia
export STARCONF_DEFAULT_PREFIX=/export/data/hps/star-hikianalia

Looks like it's building correctly - at least, got past SST this time.
Thanks!
