After banging my head against the wall trying to get CCP4, SSM, MMDB
and clipper installed in a multilib environment, I gave up and spent a
few hours reconfiguring all the libraries to abide by GNU coding
standards.  So, if you'd like, feel free to download:

ccp4c / ccp4f, mmdb, ssm and clipper from:

http://www.stanford.edu/~fenn/linux/packages.html

which all include pkg-config support, spec file support (for building
rpms under fedora, my major incentive) and are all built using
automake/autoconf/libtool with library versioning.  I made a few
changes in the process:

Prompted by your excellent start, I decided to give a quick go at autotooling the rest of CCP4. I finished up pretty much everything in src/ (except pdb_extract and phaser) in a day or so, but x-windows/ isn't done yet. The tarball's available at:

http://dev.gentoo.org/~spyderous/ccp4-6.0-autotool.tar.bz2

It includes a README file in src/ that describes some caveats I haven't fixed yet, such as mandatory X/tcl/tk support, lack of support for internal lapack, etc. So far, it's pretty much the minimum necessary to get things working; lots more needs to be converted from system/OS tests to feature tests in the source code.

As I get more things working, I will update the tarball periodically (assuming I remember) to make it a drop-in build solution for all of CCP4.

Thanks,
Donnie
