1. Can I install Arachne on a Linux/Intel platform?
Yes. This is possible, but unsupported. To the
best of our
knowledge, it works fine: we compiled and ran
Arachne on a standard Linux/Intel box
(Debian 3.0 "Woody"),
and the binaries are available on-line.
However, we have not thoroughly tested it, and at
this time we are too busy to support more than one
platform. What we can do is maintain a list of
people who have successfully installed on the
Linux/Intel platform and are willing to share their
expertise:
Intel Linux binaries are available at:
ftp://ftp.broad.mit.edu/pub/wga/unsupported/Arachne_v2.0.1_Linux/.
2. Can I install Arachne on some other platform?
To the best of our knowledge, no one has tried. If the platform does
not support gcc 2.95.2 or has a big endian architecture, significant
reengineering may be required.
3. I get the following error when I run Assemble:
What can I do?
You've found a bug that only appears if your environment does not contain the variable
LD_LIBRARY_PATH. To fix it, set that variable to some value, such as "/usr/lib".
