I got it to work on Fedora 16 first with help of their README.build file - your instruction made it easier to quickly decipher it. I then got it to work on Ubuntu 11.10, but it required a small re-write/rearrangements on a couple of MAKEFILE - this came via instructions posted at their forum. http://sourceforge.net/projects/staden/forums/forum/347718/topic/4861055 Thanks again. The authors really should post installation instructions on their homepage AS WELL AS on the download packages - I should think this would not be so hard to do. Even with instructions, it's plenty of work - quite overwhelming for a semi-informed newbie like me. I finally found some time to work this through.

Thanks again. The authors really should post installation instructions on their homepage AS WELL AS on the download packages – I should think this would not be so hard to do. Even with instructions, it’s plenty of work – quite overwhelming for a semi-informed newbie like me.

After the instructions above it will be installed in /usr/local/bin so you can just type gap4 from the terminal in any directory and it will run. I don't actually know how to use the program so I don't have any input files to test to see if my install crashes or not. Try running gap4 from outside of the installation directory.

I had wrong version of staden downloaded! The installation went - some error messages here and there... Unfortunately, running gap4 from the directory caused the original terminal to crash. And with new terminal, I still cannot invoke any of the programs - gap4, gap5, etc. Oh well. Nevermind! I had wrong version of staden downloaded!

Unfortunately, I tried this and it didn't work. What happens is that in step 6, ../configure (within ~/staden/staden-2.0.0b9.i686/build.mavrick) gives bash: ../configure: No such file or directory One thing I noticed is that ~/staden/io_lib-1.12.5 has a file called configure, whereas there is no such file in ~/staden/stadent-2.0.09b.i686 or any of its subdirectories (including, no surprise, /build.mavrick) I've looked (but not exhaustively). Should I try ../io_lib-1.12.5/configure from ~/staden/staden-2.0.0b9.i686/build.mavrick ?? Thanks again. Unfortunately, I tried this and it didn’t work.

I forgot the step where you change directory to the downloaded staden directory Basically you have to execute step 6 within the extracted staden directory My Fiance is a Microbiologist and struggles with compiling and understanding all of these applications so you are not alone in being new to all of this. If you have questions or want help on other things feel free to ask. I actually enjoy creating guides for this stuff that helps others. Hope that helps. I just updated the guide for step 6.

I got most of this to work for me until I got to step 6. With ../configure, I get an error as follows. configure:2247: error: source directory already configured; run "make distclean" there first I tried typing make distclean in various directories within ~/staden without the error going away. Got this message instead make: *** No rule to make target `distclean'. Stop. Any ideas? I'm still a bit new to this. This is great. I got most of this to work for me until I got to step 6.

Any ideas? I’m still a bit new to this.
