Sadly, this is going to become a theme for virtually all scientific packages using (Py)Qt for their GUI. The Qt company have decided to stop supporting the free version of Qt5, pushing all developers other than those who can afford the license fees on to Qt6 (which does not run in CentOS 7). It's a real pain, but that's just the way things are.

Subject: [chimerax-users] Version 1.4 for CentOS 7?

Hi,

First, apologies if this has already been announced elsewhere.

I see on the download webpage that there is no production release for CentOS 7 and the latest daily release for this platform was built on 2022-05-06. Any chance we could get a production release of 1.4 and/or a newer daily build for CentOS 7?

Thank you very much!

Best wishes,
