 * The 64-bit Linux build will only run on a system that is compatible with CentOS 5.  * The 64-bit Linux build will only run on a system that is compatible with CentOS 6. '''Note that is is a recent change from CentOS 5'''

To obtain a cutting-edge build of the Starlink Software Collection, run one of the following commands:

  • rsync -avz --delete --exclude=local --exclude=lost+found starlink.jach.hawaii.edu::starlink.x86_64/ star/ (for 64-bit Linux)

    rsync -avz --delete --exclude=local --exclude=lost+found starlink.jach.hawaii.edu::starlink.i386/ star/ (for 32-bit Linux)

    rsync -avz --delete --exclude=local --exclude=lost+found starlink.jach.hawaii.edu::stardev.x86_64/ stardev/ (for 64-bit Linux. cutting edge)

    rsync -avz --delete --exclude=local --exclude=lost+found starlink.jach.hawaii.edu::stardev.snowleopard/ /stardev/ (OS X, Snow Leopard, cutting edge)

    rsync -avz --delete --exclude=local --exclude=lost+found starlink.jach.hawaii.edu::stardev.lion/ /stardev/ (OS X, Lion / Mountain Lion, cutting edge)

Caveats:

  • The 64-bit Linux build will only run on a system that is compatible with CentOS 6. Note that is is a recent change from CentOS 5

  • These builds are cutting edge so new bugs may have crept in, or it is possible to rsync while an installation is happening.
  • The 32-bit Linux build is not updated as frequently as the 64-bit build, as it is not a version that is run at the JAC very frequently.
  • The stardev.x86_64 is more cutting edge then the starlink.x86_64 build. It is also built for /stardev which is useful because it will not clash with any /star libraries you may have from a previous system-wide install. Use the stardev rsync if you are on a site that uses /star.
  • The Mac OS X builds are automatically generated and may not have been tested.
  • Starlink builds for Mac OS X are not relocatable and these ones will need to be installed in /stardev (or in a directory to which that is symlinked).

If you encounter any problems with these builds, email stardev@jach.hawaii.edu for assistance.
