IRAF on AIX5

lidia wrote on Mar 23, 2006

Dear All,

I have a very naive question.
I need to install IRAF on an IBM cluster with AIX5 platform.
Is there any plan for supporting IRAF on AIX5 platform?
In that case when would it be available?

If not, what can I do? :)

Thanks to anybody who can help,
Lidia

Lidia,

The last release of IRAF for AIX4 was V2.11.3, support was dropped shortly thereafter due to lack of interest and the fact the machine being used for support finally died on us. There is still not much interest in AIX and without access to a machine it is unlikely an upgrade will ever happen, your only hope may be to see whether the V2.11.3 AIX4 binaries still work. Files can be found in

ftp://iraf.noao.edu/iraf/v211/AIX4

Cheers,
-Mike
