x11iraf not installin

pjpessi wrote on Jun 23, 2017


So I am following this steps to install iraf (http://www.astronomy.ohio-state.edu/~khan/iraf/iraf_step_by_step_installation_64bit) but when i get to the sudo tar -zxf x11iraf-v2.0BETA-bin.linux.tar.gz /sudo rm x11iraf-v2.0BETA-bin.linux.tar.gz/ sudo ./install I get sudo: unable to execute ./install: No such file or directory.

But the file is there.

I search for a while and try almost everything to make it work (including installing static xgterm as follows:

chmod 755 /home/pjpessi/Descargas/xgterm.STATIC

sudo mv /home/pjpessi/Descargas//xgterm.STATIC /usr/local/bin/xgterm

And installing 32bit libraries:

sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-0:i386 libnss3-1d:i386 libnspr4-0d:i386 lib32nss-mdns libxml2:i386 libxslt1.1:i386

Among other things.

Do you know whay I keep getting this error?

Thanks a lot

I believe that a C-shell install script, make sure you have the 'tcsh' package installed as well. If you're running the v2.16 distribution from us then the X11IRAF stuff is already included and should be installed with the rest of IRAF.
