Please unbundle libRMF
Chimera installs lib/libRMF.so, and UCSF IMP also installs lib/libRMF.so, so that they can't be used together, despite the claim that "IMP can also be used from the Chimera http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/ molecular modeling system" (see https://integrativemodeling.org/).
Please unbundle libRMF (https://github.com/salilab/rmf), and use an external package for it.
Also imagine if some other software used libRMF too, how can they all be installed together? Bundling is a mess. Please never bundle software packages because this only causes problems down the road.
I also asked IMP to unbundle libRMF.so: https://github.com/salilab/imp/issues/1005
Thanks,
Yuri
Chimera includes libRMF.so in its own set of files. It makes no attempt at installing it anywhere else. Why would your programs find the one under Chimera?
