FC3 binary for ASAP 2.1 doesn't work for me

[Simon.Ellingsen@…]

I've installed the ASAP 2.1 binary for FC3, but it doesn't work properly for me (FC3 system). The install script appeared to work properly, the asap_update_data doesn't work for me (probably related to having to give username/password for external web sites from UTas). I've downloaded the asap_data.tar.bz2 from the web site and extracted it into /usr/local/share/asap. This is what I get when I type ASAP (below)

P.S. I'm happy to try installing ASAP 2.1 from source to see if that works.

I haven't updated matplot lib (I'm running version 0.87.3)

This is fo Chris,

just a not on asap data/

it goes into the same directory as _asap.so e.g. /usr/local/lib/python2.3/site-packages/asap/data

ipythonrc-asap also goes in there.

This has changed from the previous release.

A quick google reveals cfitsio as the culprit. You probably use a different version to Chris.

Old version of cfitsio installed. Upgrade fixed problem
