Greetings all,

As you know in the past we have made rather stern warnings about what
version of gcc
you should use for compiling SVDPACKC. However, I found myself working
these days
with version 4.1.1 of gcc, and having absolutely no problems with
SVDPACKC (the problem
in the past has been rather inexplicable segementation faults when
running las2).

So....I might temper our version requirements a bit in light of my
experience of late - in the
past we have suggested using a 3.2 or 3.3 version of gcc, but I'm not
sure if that's either
realistic or necessary at this point.

If you've had any experiences with SVDPACKC good or bad that might
shed some light
on this, I'd be happy to hear about them. I am actually not a high
powered user of gcc, so
I'm wondering if there might not be some option settings I don't know
about that might
help resolve some of this inconsistency as we move from version to
version of gcc.

Right now we just compile like this...

gcc -ansi -O -c  las2.c

Also, I found that I was having a hard time compiling SVDLIBC on a
Xeon processor - so
my efforts on that front are momentarily stalled, but will surely continue.

So, I'll be updating CPAN with a new development release of
SenseClusters sometime in
the next few days that will hopefully resolve some issues with
svdpackout.pl and might
have better guidelines about compiling SVDPACKC. Thereafter we'll move
on to considering
the issue of SVDPACKC versus SVDLIBC.

Cordially,
Ted
