Thanks Paul for pointing me to the correct build script. I did get it to build
on Linux ;-), and it works.
I then went on to build coot 64 bit on Mac OS 10.6 from the source code. But I
find my coot-bin binary exits with a malloc free error when I try to load .mtz
files in various ways or even when I use the --self-test option,
$ ./coot-bin --self-test
coot-bin(59109) malloc: *** error for object 0x7fff70935500: pointer being
freed was not allocated
*** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug
I'm not sure this output is too useful from gdb since it could not find the
source/object files. I could
make a list though of the source/object files it was trying to find if that
helps.
$ gdb coot-bin
