  82 </pre></div>
  83
  84 <p>Looking at the <a

  91   <p>ClearQuest uses the Motif libraries native to the machine, and these libraries need to include the proper symbolic links. If the symbolic links are not established, the following error occurs when invoking</p>

 103
 104 <p>And, of course:</p>
 105
 106 <div class=code><pre>
 107 <font color="#3333ff"><b>Ranlin02:</b></font><u>rpm -qa | grep XFree86-devel</u>
 108 <font color="#3333ff"><b>Ranlin02</b></font>:
 109 </pre></div>
 110
 111 <p>So can we get XFree86-devel-* installed?</p>
 112
 113 <p>On a different but related note, we generally support only Sun and only csh (and it's derivatives - tcsh). We have a serious of csh style start up scripts (which I've largely replicated/converted for bash...) one of which sources /prj/muosran/config/cq_setup.csh. That is merely a copy of a /opt/rational/clearquest/bin/cq_setup.csh. Contained therein is a reference to sun5 which is bad because this source of /prj/muosran/config/cq_setup.csh is global and thus sourced by users of Linux machines. Naturally Linux user will not be finding any sun5 executables nor executing them.</p>
 114
 115 <p>I've made a modification to /proj/muosran/config/cq_setup.csh as such:</p>
 116
 117 <div class=code><pre>
 118 #!/bin/csh -f<br><br>#  Andrew@DeFaria.com 07-25-2007: By specifying sun5 we tie
 119 # ourselves to an architecture. There is no need to do this.
 120 # Call the clearquest in /opt/rational/clearquest/bin and let
 121 # it figure out our architecture.
 122
 123 #eval `/opt/rational/clearquest/sun5/bin/clearquest -dumpcsh`<br>eval `/opt/rational/clearquest/bin/clearquest -dumpcsh`
 124
 125 set var = $status
 126 if ($var != 0) then
 127     unset var
 128     exit(2)
 129 endif
 130 unset var
 131
 132 #echo "You can now run 'clearquest' to start Rational ClearQuest."
 133 </pre></div>
 134
 135 <p>Still all of this seem pretty arbitrary. What is the above script doing but checking that clearquest can simply be run? Why set an environment variable (var) only to test it and then ultimately unset it?!? Seems like really odd and unnecessary code from IBM/Rational.</p>
