Hi,
Was this an install from executables, or from source?
I have just installed Ubuntu Gutsy on my laptop (everything including
wireless worked out of the box - I think Ubuntu is great for people who
want to simply use computers).
I installed CCP4 6.0.2 with the automatic installer from the CCP4
website, using the redhat executables, and used the 'everything' option
(why compile when someone else has already done this for you?).
After I put the setup command in my .cshrc (using tcsh - old habit), the
system is slightly broken: python is installed by CCP4 in /usr/local/lib
and this is version 2.4
Some of the system administration interfaces (like for printing) expect
python 2.5 and fail with a 'libglade.so missing' error when python 2.4
takes over. This took me quite a while to discover.
I have not fully worked out whether python 2.4 is essential for ccp4:
after deleting it from /usr/local/bin everything I have used (interface
included) still seems to work.

On Ubuntu 7.10 - Gusty:
A necessary shared lib file for ccp4 6.0.2 called libblas.so.2 was not
present on my fresh system. So provide a link to libblas.so.3.0
On any system:
Perhaps all your new jobs in ccp4i report a job status of "STARTING"
forever and ever & there are no errors in the session log, no ability to
view com files, & no output files. If none of the troubleshooting tips
on the CCP4 site are helpful, see if you installed CRANK after CCP4 with
regards to your PATH. In my new Ubuntu installation, I found an empty
ccp4ish "dummy" file inside CRANK's bin directory that had me "dummy"
guessing wrong for hours.
Kind regards,
