==== Installation on OpenSUSE 11.2 ====

After installing all required yast-packages (see below) the recent version of [[public:user software:CR-Tools]] (#3852 as of 13.12.2009, without startools or GUI) installed without additional intervention. (Needs to be checked with a clean system! AH)

The rough steps:
  - Install the following packages via yast:
    * Select "Patterns" and install the following:
      * C/C++ Development
      * Python Development
      * Tcl/Tk Development
    * Select "Search" and install the following packages:
      * gcc-fortran
      * lapack
      * python-devel
      * fftw3-devel
      * gsl-devel
      * libqt4-devel
      * libqt4-devel-doc
  - Get the sourcecode from the subversion repository:<code>cd <your path> ;svn co http://usg.lofar.org/svn/code/trunk usg</code>
  - Add the ''.../usg/release/bin'' directory to your path (e.g. with bash): <code bash>echo "export LOFARSOFT=<your path>/usg" >> ~/.bashrc
echo ". $LOFARSOFT/devel_common/scripts/init.sh" >> ~/.bashrc</code>
  - Build the stuff: <code> cd <LOFARSOFT>/usg/build; ./bootstrap; make cr </code>

==== Installation on OpenSUSE 10.3/11.1 ====

In general the installation on a plain OpenSUSE 10.3 works without much trouble. (Update 28. Mar. 2008:) The recent version of the cr-tools require root, which needs to be istalled "by hand". Also the ''libgfortran'' symlink still needs to be set. But both issues are considered minor.

The detailed steps:
  - If you installed it from DVD, make sure that also the "Main OSS" software repository is added in yast, as some packages are not on the DVD.
  - Install the following packages via yast:
    * Select "Patterns" and install the following:
      * C/C++ Development
      * Python Development
      * Tcl/Tk Development
    * Select "Search" and install the following packages:
      * gcc-fortran
      * lapack
      * python-devel
      * fftw3-devel
      * gsl-devel
      * libqt4-devel
      * libqt4-devel-doc
  - As root: go to ''/usr/lib'' and make a symlink from ''libgfortran.so'' to ''libgfortran.so.2.0.0'': <code>cd /usr/lib; ln -s libgfortran.so.?.0.0 libgfortran.so</code> (Adjust this to the exact name of the installed libgfortran.)
  - Install the [[http://root.cern.ch|ROOT]] package manually (e.g. to ''/opt/root'')
    * E.g by: downloading ''ftp://root.cern.ch/root/root_v5.22.00.source.tar.gz'', and then unpacking, ''./configure'', ''make'', and ''make install''
  - If you want to have the GUI, then you also need to install [[http://mathgl.sourceforge.net/|mathgl]] manually.
    * I (Andreas H.) think (i.e. I might be wrong!) I managed this by: 
      - downloading [[http://sourceforge.net/project/downloading.php?groupname=mathgl&filename=mathgl-1.8.tar.gz&use_mirror=surfnet|mathgl-1.8.tar.gz]] 
      - ''./bootstrap''
      - ''cmake .'' \\ (note the ".")
      - ''ccmake .'' \\ and switching on ''enable-qt''
      - ''make''
      - ''make install''
  - Get the sourcecode from the subversion repository:<code>cd <LOFARSOFT> ;svn co http://usg.lofar.org/svn/code/trunk usg</code>
  - Add the ''.../usg/release/bin'' directory to your path (e.g. with bash): <code bash>echo "export LOFARSOFT=<your path>" >> ~/.bashrc
echo ". $LOFARSOFT/devel_common/scripts/init.sh" >> ~/.bashrc</code>
  - Build the stuff: <code>
cd <LOFARSOFT>/usg/build; ./bootstrap; make cr
</code> (Note: You get several warnings: ''warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to ‘char*’'' Just ignore them...)
  - If you want the GUI, then you need to switch it on manually:
    - <code> cd <LOFARSOFT>/usg/build/cr; make edit_cache</code>
    - switch on ''CR_WITH_GUI'', //configure// (press "c"), //generate// (press "g")
    - <code> make install </code> And pray that it works...
