Hi Greg, I think the Chimera build system should not install Chimera as each piece is built. The trouble with that is if the build fails half way through, then the installed Chimera is crippled. I don't want that to happen even on our development machines. I think Chimera should build into a temporary build directory, and when the build succeeds, a "make install" puts it in the installed location. This is an easy change to our current system, simply pointing the Chimera build to a temporary directory instead of the install directory. Tom
