Dear Dwayne,
all mainstream Linux distros, including RHEL 7, can be considered as
supported by CCP4.
In practice the problem is only with very old Linuxes. Currently
RHEL5 is the oldest distro still supported by its vendor and it is fully
supported by CCP4. We don't know if anyone is still using RHEL4 -
the last time ccp4 helpdesk was contacted regarding rhel4 was maybe
two years ago. But although we haven't tested it before this release,
I suppose that almost all ccp4 programs still work under rhel4.
With a few exceptions, for example Ccp4MG requires newer OpenGL.
