steps installing starlink gaia
download latest starlink distribution (hikianalia, of writing):
uncompress .tar.gz. new
star
directory created. can move other place (for instance,/users/shared/star
, or/star
)- as installer 0.7gb, might want delete after installation has been successful.
depending on default shell:
for c (
csh
,tcsh
) shells:create
starlink_dir
environment variable pointingstar
directory left (i.e.,/users/shared/star
):setenv starlink_dir /users/shared/star
source chsrc files
source $starlink_dir/etc/login source $starlink_dir/etc/cshrc
you can combine steps above creating alias called
start_starlink
add .cshrc file, start starlink libraries when needed:alias start_starlink 'setenv starlink_dir /users/shared/star; source $starlink_dir/etc/login; source $starlink_dir/etc/cshrc'
for bourne (
sh
,bash
,zsh
) shells:create
starlink_dir
environment variable pointingstar
directory left (i.e.,/users/shared/star
):export starlink_dir=/users/shared/star
source chsrc files
. $starlink_dir/etc/profile
you can combine steps above creating alias called
start_starlink
add .cshrc file, start starlink libraries when needed:alias start_starlink='export starlink_dir=/users/shared/star; . $starlink_dir/etc/profile'
so, after typing start_starlink
, can type gaia
launch starlink gaia.
fixing missing gfortran
in x86_64 systems, if launching gaia fails message:
dyld: library not loaded: /usr/local/lib/libgfortran.3.dylib referenced from: /users/jdsant/downloads/star/bin/gaia/gaia_wish reason: image not found
you need make sure have gfortran libraries installed, , gaia expects them.
you can try use locate libgfortran.3.dylib
, , copy /usr/local/lib
, or make symlink it. see, instance, http://starlink.jach.hawaii.edu/starlink/hikianaliadownload#snowleopard64-bitdistribution
