Fink: coot and coot-pre alternate packages now available

Dear OS X Coot users:

I've updated coot to use a stand-alone refmac, as well as the CCP4 open-source libraries, so all dependencies on proprietary parts of CCP4 should no longer be present.

If you want a recent pre-release, just install "coot".  If it isn't recent enough, either email me, or just grab a pre-compiled nightly version.



You can also do it yourself, if you are in a hurry, just by editing the file

/sw/fink/dists/stable/main/finkinfo/sci/coot.info, changing line 3 (the Revision number) and the corresponding checksum (line 8).


The stand-alone packages will continue to be based upon automatic nightly builds, available here:

or here:  http://psbmini.ucsc.edu/~wgscott/coot/?C=M;O=D


Please let me know if any of these are problematic.
