Hmmmmmmm, after reading the tag below this is slightly worrying I’ve just updated olex2 can a centos user check if the update is work?
Assuming it is there is now olex2 and a new platon for you to play with. If it isn’t then let me know and I can drop the centos update off the server.
Thanks to Fred Hollander who has tracked, sadly via trial and error, some missing dependencies for the Centos install. I’ve corrected these, put in the latest SVN and a new GUI snapshot.
Enjoy
Consequently, python2.5 and python2.5-imaging have been updated as well to correct some bugs also revealed by Fred.
Pascal, hijacking John’s post
Olex2 “engine” has been updated for all distros.
The Olex2 GUI rpm will be updated in the next few days or so.
The Olex2 authors are planning on moving the code to Python 2.6. If they do this support will freeze at this current release as Python 2.5.x is only supported by Fedora 9 and 10 and Centos 5 (thanks to Pascal’s compat install).
Olex2 is set to be updated for all supported distributions this afternoon. However as with all perfect plans the actual olex2 GUI servers are down.
The current rpm utilises the GUI server to fetch the latest gui for the user on first run. Therefore until the server is back up and running olex2 won’t work for new users. Users who installed prior to 09/10/08 should be ok.
To try and avoid this rather embarrassing problem from happening again in the future the xforum and olex2 are working together to setup a mirror system. This will of course take a while.
In the next release (next Saturday) a snapshot GUI will also be added to the rpm (increasing the rpm size) but helping also to remove this problem.
Sorry for any inconvience.
