Hi Heidi,
why don't you just install the latest binary distribution? That's much
less hassle ... just go to
http://www.ysbl.york.ac.uk/~emsley/software/binaries/nightlies/pre-release/
and grab e.g.
coot-0.5-pre-1-revision-1003-binary-Linux-i386-fedora-5.tar.gz
(Fedora 6 corresponds to RHEL5, thus Fedora 5 binaries are OK)
Then un-tar it under /usr/local/src, and establish a symlink (ln -s)
between /usr/local/bin/coot and the bin/coot of the freshly unpacked
distribution.
If you then run coot, and the loader complains that a certain library is
missing, just ask
yum whatprovides <thatlibrary>
and install the library, again using yum.
HTH,
Kay
