cs installation problem on fedora 13

Hello,

I'm trying to install cs on a fedora 13 linux OS.
I've dowload the 1.3.3 version of Code_Saturne on EDF website at research.edf.com/research-and-the-scient.../download-80059.html .

Running the automatic installation script, I've got the following problem :

[code:1]
make: *** [lib_install] Erreur 2
Directory: /home/Bruno/Programmes/Saturne/Noyau/ncs-1.3.3/build/Linux/BASE

Error : make lib_install MOD=BASE failed

Thank you for choosing Code_Saturne
[/code:1]

So, I've tried the manual installation.
Everything was ok until the lance_install command for the kernel installation.
The error message is then :

[code:1]
cs_gui.c:6767: attention : nested extern declaration of ‘xmlMemoryDump’
make[2]: *** [cs_gui.o] Erreur 1
make[2]: quittant le répertoire « /home/Bruno/Programmes/Saturne/Noyau/ncs-1.3.3/build/Linux/BASE »
make[1]: *** [privcompil] Erreur 2
make[1]: quittant le répertoire « /home/Bruno/Programmes/Saturne/Noyau/ncs-1.3.3/build/Linux/BASE »

Error : make lib_install MOD=BASE failed

Could someone please provide me help with this installation error.
Thanks in advance.

I'll second that. The compilation problem seems to come from missing libxml headers, so installing those may help. Code_Saturne 1.3.3 uses the GNU autotools for most libraries, but not the kernel, while 2.0 completes the switch to autotools, leading to a more consistent install. We're actually at rc2, but 2.0 final should be out very soon, and there will be very few differences, so starting with 2.0-rc2 is a better investment of your time than 1.3.

the code-saturne.org website is sadly not up to date, but you may find 2.0-rc2 in the forums "announces" section on code-saturne.info. If you have any other issues, feel free to e-mail Code_Saturne support to get an account on the forum and bug-tracker, but the code is regularly used and tested on a wide variety of platforms, and installation issues are usually related to missing packages, or simply missing development headers (and for the documentation, of missing "fig2dev").
