[Chimera-users] Trying to get Chimera 1.13.1 working on RHEL 7.6

[Darin Lory]

Dear ChimeraGurus,

I'm trying to get Chimera 1.13.1 working on RHEL 7.6.  I have it working on
Amazon Linux 2 in AWS Workspace.

Does anybody know what the yum package dependencies are for REHL or CentOS
7?

Chimera is crashing after "initializing graphics" as per the --debug
command line option.

I know that I had to do this to fix a few errors:

yum install tkinter
yum install tk-devel
yum install libXScrnSaver
yum install mesa-libGL mesa-libGL-devel
yum install firefox

Kindly advise.

Best regards,

-Darin
