<p>Folks,<br>
</p>
<p>I have developed a set of scripts for installing GlueX software
on several flavors of Linux. No interaction from the user should
be required to get a successful build. The only assumption made is
that the basic packages that come in a minimal install are
present.</p>
<p>
Root access is required for installing prerequisite packages on
the system<br>
</p>
<p>These scripts perform functions similar to Richard Jones's
gridmake. We need to see if they can be merged at some level.<br>
</p>
<p>Testing has been done on the following systems.<br>
