[ydl-gen] YDL 6.0

[Derick Centeno]

Kevin, in answer to your last question first, you may introduce
unstable and transient microsphere events into the timestream if you do
that.  Translation: YDL works best with the original video
cards/hardware which came with the G4/5.  Add anything else and
something may not work; if unsure check the hardware pages at Fixstars
website here: http://us.fixstars.com/support/hardware/

Regarding the compiling problems perhaps you haven't updated the
standard or base compiler which anaconda installs.  You can do:

#yum groupinstall "Development Tools"

which should allow you all the programming tools you need.
Just to be sure, you can also do:

#yum install "*gcc*"

All the best....
