Planet, Platon, CCTBX

February 24, 2010 by John No Comments »

Ok, so the planet has stalled slightly because the simplepie feed catcher is running out of puff on the cron process and getting killed.

Platon has been updated and all good and there is now a new cctbx in the testing repo.

Enjoy

January 21, 2010 by Pascal No Comments »

f3d has been updated. It has now an entry in the menu and a dependence on htmlview has been added to handle the help pages.

The source from the rpm are different from the sources on the website. Sources on the original website will be updated.

Packages for centos are also available. The rpms will remain in the testing branch for a while. You need to activate the testing repository to install it : yum --enablerepo=debroglie-test install f3d

Fourier3D – f3d

January 9, 2010 by Pascal No Comments »

A new rpm is present in the test repository for fedora only. I have to modify a little bit the spec file for centos.

It is a program such as Michal Husak’s MCE is an invaluable tool, but one which is unfortunately only available for Windows.

F3D is designed to bring the same functionality to UNIX (and Linux) based computers, and includes many additional features. Many thanks are given to Michal for allowing us to use an early IRIX version of his program as a convenient starting point for the prototype of the program.

The program can be launch directly from platon.

Have a look at the homepage: http://www.cryst.chem.uu.nl/tooke/fourier3d/

Sorry world, it looks like I’ve missed two updates during Christmas and the New Year. Platon is currently building for all distros. Will upload later today.

I am very sorry, honest as because of this windows users went a head in the release info.

One final note this update is getting put into the test repo as it has been reported that squeez to be merging the data again.

A raft of updates

December 10, 2009 by John 2 Comments »

I thought, I know I’ll update CCTBX, Tonto-chem, Olex2 and Olex2-GUI rpms for the testing repo. I can do that in a few hours and upload the lot before I leave to catch the train.
This is true I could but thanks to me not noticing that Olex2 was pulling an incomplete SVN image or more precisely one which did not compile compared to the one I was testing Olex2 get bouncing out of my building scripts with a big fat failure.

So now the clock is ticking the race is on the time is right! The fruit is ripe for the picking and other similar sayings – I have less than 30 mins to build Olex2 and upload all the rest to the testing repo and Olex2 has just crapped out again for Fedora 8.
Good news is that it has reached Epel 5 for the rest so fingers crossed.

Assuming I get it done then I will:

  • Remove the fonts-chemistry (as this does not comply to Fedora package law, all bow and kneel before the mighty Fedora :-) )
  • Update CCTBX to latest not released version (09/12/2009)
  • Update Tonto-chem
  • Update Olex2 to (10/12/2009 svn snapshot)
  • Update Olex2 GUI
  • Catch my train!
  • Fingers crossed everybody!
    Update just discovered that during all this my yum update has removed my Fedora 9 mock entries! So Fedora 9 people I guess your EOL already? You may not have any of the updates above?

     

    Superflip update

    by Pascal 1 Comment »

    I screwed up on the last update of superflip. The version is now up to date (24/08/2009).

    Thanks to Lukas for pointing this out.

    The centos version is not available due to a compilation error.
