Dear Prof. Holder, Surprisingly, I had tried the very step you stated but failed to run the program! Our discussion leads me to a conjecture that the Debian PyMol package is perhaps broken. I will do an extensive testing and be back with information. Is there a self-sustaining package in your website that can run on its own, just like Geogebra independent package? Regards, Rajib & Yuktimmana
