Does that > matter?) Hi Zhao: Yes, it does matter (otherwise I would not have mentioned it). Please read the section "Final Hints" of file INSTALL. All critical packages can be found in subdirectory "contrib" of the ptolemy-0.7.1p1-3 directory (ftp://ftp.tu-ilmenau.de/pub/unix/ptolemy/ptolemy0.7.1.linux/RH5.x/). > On RedHat6.1: > I just used the command "rpm --rebuild ptolemy-0.7....", but there still > have errors.

You need ptolemy-0.7.1p1-10.src.rpm which can be downloaded from the same site (ftp://ftp.tu-ilmenau.de/pub/unix/ptolemy/ptolemy0.7.1.linux/SRPMS/). Rpm-3.x is buggy. So please downgrade to rpm-2.5.6-6.0 before starting install, upgrade, or uninstall process. Please read KNOWN_BUGS before starting. I already posted answers with regard to the problems you mentioned above to the Ptolemy hackers mailing list and the Ptolemy news group (news:comp.soft-sys.ptolemy) several times. Next time please make sure that your problem has not been answered before. > > One more question: > I can not find the "%built" section when I try to comment it in the > ptolemy-0.7.1p1.spec file.

In order to omit building and packaging of the debug version: - in the "%build" section of ptolemy-0.7.1p1.spec comment all lines between line "# remove the first pound sign of the next 37 ..." and line "# now start building DLL version" - comment all lines of section "%files debugbin" including the section line - comment all lines of section "%files devel_debugbin" including the section line > > Thank you very much! > > Yours, > Zhao Wenhui I hope this will be helpful to you.
