Hi,
I have PyMol up and running on my windows partition .. the installation
was super easy. Now, I want to set it up on my Linux partition. I have
Mandrake 8.1 installed, which means that my default python version is 2.1.
It also means that many things (Numeric, zlib, etc..) are pre-installed
for me.
So, I downloaded the PyMol sources and tried to install it. In the
external packages bit, it looked like the only thing I need is glut. So,
I changed the setenv BASE line in build.com to point to the right place
(/home/mglerner/src/pymol/ext in my case) and changed the setenv
PYMOL_TARGETS line to say "glut-linux" and did "./build.com". I also
tried "./build.com glut-linux" for variety .. both seemed to work.
Then I went up a directory into the main pymol directory. I then moved
Rules.linux to Rules.make and edited it. There were many instances of
-lpython1.5 .. I changed all of them to -lpython2.1. It was still having
some trouble finding libpython2.1, so I added -L/usr/lib/python2.1/config
to the LIB_DIRS line. After typing make, things get pretty far, but it
doesn't get far enough. I wasn't sure how many of the error messages to
include, but I've tacked on the last screen or so of output at the end of
this message.
There were some things that made me think that various parts of this build
process were really looking for python sources in the ext directory, so I
placed a copy of the python 2.1 sources there just in case. It didn't
seem to help.
Sorry if this is a dumb question,
