[mcstas-users] Error in installing mcstas 2.1 on centos 6.5

[Peter Kjær Willendrup]

Dear Mohd Rizal,


It seems that our last version of the installation instructions are missing one important point: Requirements for some packages from the EPEL distribution.

Try following the instructions http://www.unixmen.com/install-epel-repository-rhel-centos-scientific-linux-6/ - and try the installation of McStas again.

Hope this helps,

Peter Willendrup
