hi, Yonggang,

I have installed the Gate v4.0 recently and it really take me quite a lot time to
get it done. Here are something I found:

1. There is a bug in the  Gate installation scripts GNUmakefile line 27:
            -I./source/output/include\
   there should be a space between 'include' and '\', like this
            -I./source/output/include \
   otherwise when you compile Gate, the compiler will ignore the whole
   output module, including /gate/output/ascii and /gate/output/root.
   I found this problem appears under the shell of bash , perhaps not in tcsh or csh.

2. On the Gate website it say's root version is "root 5.14 to last version", but my
     experience show that it only works with 5.14 and lower. I tried root from 5.21 to 5.20 and 5.16,
      all have problems at the last step of compile to generate Gate executable file.

My system is SLC4.

Hi,

I am installing GATE4.0 on my linux machine.  I have Fedora 8 on this computer.  During installation, I have two questions:


 1.  When I ran the testbench, either PET or SPECT, I got error saying “/gate/output/ascii/setFile???flag 0” command not found.  Actually, when I didn’t see ascii subfolder at all in GATE.  I have enabled G4ANALYSIS_USE and G4ANALYSIS_USE_FILE.
 2.  I have used “root” to install all the packages.  Can I install them as general user?


Thanks,
Yonggang
