Olex2 Release Revoked – REVOKED
Olex2 is now in the release repo! The bug was tracked down to a floating point error in the nodoka gnome GTK theme which was being caught by cctbx. The bug is still there in the theme but now cctbx ignores it!

Olex2 Release Revoked
Thanks to a rather nasty crashing bug of doom, in Olex2 it has been moved back to testing. It appears when a scroll bar is dragged or already located on the extreme left. If you are effected by this please just delete your $HOME/olex2 directory and then start olex2 from the menu icon or cmdline. …

Olex2 to Move to Release
Olex2 from the Durham boys has seen much success and has come along in leaps and bounds since its birth. It now encompasses the full gambit of operating systems from Windows to Mac and of course this includes the very important Linux. The Olex2 guys have been supporting the SUSE 10.1 builds whilst debroglie.net has …

Crystals
wxgtk 2.4 no longer compile on fedora 10. Modification have been made in crystals to compile with gfortran and wxgtk 2.8. Unfortunately I can’t make it work for now. Crystals will be dropped of fedora 10 until I make it work.

Glad its not Saturday
OK, in an attempt to reduce bandwidth and work for all I’ve switched my Olex2 build from weekly to fortnightly and I suspect by early December it will switch from testing to release unless any one has found an obvious bug in it. This should be just in time for EOL of fedora 8. I …

Look over there
I’d figured you’d be tired of hearing about Platon updates and version numbers by now so I thought I would distract you whilst a whisper that another version of Platon has been released and the debrog rpms updated appropriately.

Platon Version Issues
You may have noticed that your debroglie RPM is version 081103 whilst the platon software internal version is 311008. Unfortunately although Ton updated the source code on the 031108 (hence our version number) he didn’t update his version. What’s more fun is you don’t know what version the software will be until after building and …
