Dear Carlo, dear members of the list, I just wanted to share something about a problem with horae I just solved. I don't know if it is related to the debian and debian-like builds of horae or something else. Here is the context: - I run ubuntu - I use the last versions of horae package, but I had the same problem for years... - I could not import a .cif file in Artemis (error trapped) and had to enter the data manually. I decided to take the time to solve this small but annoying problem and it appeared to be easily done: the error message said that I could not import a cif file because the STAR::Parser was not installed. By installing libstar-parser-perl I solved the problem. In an old message, Carlo you said that you had built the packages which included (among other things) this libstar-parser-perl package: http://www.mail-archive.com/ifeffit@millenia.cars.aps.anl.gov/msg00256.html but for some reasons it did not install even if I used your horae packages on your repositories. If that helps someone... Cheers denis
