We're happy to announce the first Linux release of Opticks!
Downloads:
This is an unofficial alpha release for 64-bit x86 Debian based system. Limited smoke testing has been performed on Ubuntu 9.04. This has not been rigorously tested and is marked as a Developer's release only. It is not equivalent to 4.3.0 and contains a number of bug fixes. It has been generated from trunk revision 6978.
This is a .deb which can be installed as follows:
become root using su or sudo
dpkg -i opticks-4.3.1Nightly20090616.deb
This will install the software to /opt/Opticks
You can run the application using /opt/Opticks/Bin/Opticks
This is a release build and includes the tutorial and plug-in sampler plug-ins.
We encourage Linux users to test this build and provide feedback to dev@opticks.ballforge.net or http://issues.ballforge.net
