Thanks for the prompt update! This is very clear now and should avoid
trouble. And yes, on a SL6 machine I had no problems to get it working
following the wiki.
If you have time later, could you also write there if the wiki will be
update if there are newer releases available that are recommended to
be used? While it's not clear how old v6r14p5 is, 2015-09-03 sounds at
least "old". A short statement about the parameters and that these are
the currently recommended versions which will be updated if better
versions are available, could be helpful. But that's not urgent and it
works for now like it is described.

I will post the dirac software specific items on the github page as
you suggested.

Cheers,
  Marcus
