The Phaser-2.1.1 module is now available through the
CCP4 automated Downloads page
and from the Daresbury ftp server. The module can be taken as a module
of a fresh CCP4 6.0.2 installation, or it can be added to an existing
6.0.2 installation. In particular, the automated script install.sh will
check for an existing CCP4 installation, and give you the option of
installing Phaser there. On windows platform you are provided with a
Cumulative-update-3.exe file that should apply the update and
known fixes; this can be installed on a fresh ccp4 installation as well
as on a ccp4 installation on which you performed earlier updates.
In ccp4i, there is an updated phaser_MR task, as well as a new phaser_EP
task. If you updating an existing CCP4 installation, then the ccp4i
interface should be updated automatically.
