[Gate-users] Problem in installation of Geant4

[Zhengzhi Liu]

Hi Yasmine,

I have installed ROOT, Geant4, and Gate for numerous times already.
Hopefully, my notes would help you a little bit. As to your question, you
don't have to install CLHEP, as it has been provided in GEANT4, but you
need to set up correctly in CMake during the compile. Please check out my
bash history file attached.


Instruction for installations:
For ROOT:
check out: 30.4 Installing Precompiled Binaries
<https://root.cern.ch/root/html534/guides/users-guide/InstallandBuild.html>

For Geant4:
Check out this PDF file
<https://indico.tifr.res.in/indico/getFile.py/access?contribId=29&resId=0&materialId=slides&confId=5309>

For Gate:

Good luck with your installation and have fun.
Zhengzhi
