I wanted to build e910tas on my home PC. It has the following relevent details:

• K6-166
• 32 Megs SDRAM
• 70 Megs swap
• 1.2 Gig plain-vanilla Seagate EIDE disk

I found the following things had to be installed:

• pgf77 -- I am using the 15-day demo "version"
• gcc-2.8.1-1.i386.rpm
• gcc-c++-2.8.1-1.i386.rpm
• libstdc++-2.8.1-2.i386.rpm
• libstdc++-devel-2.8.1-2.i386.rpm
• glibc-2.0.7-13.i386.rpm
• glibc-devel-2.0.7-13.i386.rpm
  • texinfo-3.12-1.i386.rpm
• postgresql-6.2.1-7.i386.rpm
• postgresql-devel-6.2.1-7.i386.rpm

The installed base for the "physics" software:

• e910 account
• a directory for E910_LOCALROOT: eg /scratch/e910 on my machine
• pgf77-compiled cernlib 98
• cvs -d winter@physgi03:/scratch15/e910 $E910_LOCALROOT/eostas/updsrc e910tas
• cvs -d winter@physgi03:/scratch15/e910 checkout -d $E910_LOCALROOT/database/updsrc database
• ftp e910utils.tar from blood:~e910/e910utils.tar
  • cd $E910_LOCALROOT; tar xvf e910utils.tar
  • cd utils/source/socket++-1.10; make clean
  • ./configure
  • make
  • make install prefix=$E910_LOCALROOT/utils
• make all the arch-specific driectories
• cd $E910_LOCALROOT/database/updsrc/e910pgsql/lib; make ; make install
• cd $E910_LOCALROOT/eostas/updsrc
  • make instlib=/dev/null lib obj
  • make install_lib install_obj
  • make bin install_bin

There you have it!
