Sorry, I should have specified that this happens to all PDB files. I first thought it's the particular one which O downloaded, but when I then downloaded my own to manually adjust the CRYST card on the "broken" entry I realized no PDB works at all. You can pick any random PDB code and it will not work. Since it's also effecting Pymol I'm not sure what's going on if a central library from CCP4 is broken.
The system I'm running on is OS X Snow leopard 10.6.3 Try 2PC4 as an example. On a second machine which I have not upgraded yet through fink I have no problem generating symmetry mates. I did not try pdbset, but there's nothing obviously wrong in the header. I'll send a screenshot of the error message shortly.

Did you run the PDB file through pdbset to reset space group and cell dimensions.

Coot complains about a problem in the CRYST card. Is this a feature or a know bug ? Any help Paul ?
