[gate-users] GEANT4 Installation Problem - Mac OSX

[Mutanga Theodore]

Hello
If I get it right then you need to change  ~build to -build. This is
because with the ~build the compiler  recognizes only the Configure
command and then of course it exits and  reminds you to build it first.

I hope this helps.

Cheers
