Hi,

I recently tried to install Geant4 on a Linux-PC running RedHat6.0 following
the installation instruction provided. The "gmake global" command fails with
errors similiar to:

/usr/local/cern/geant4.0.1/tmp/Linux-g++/G4digits/G4DCofThisEvent.d:1: ***
missing separator.  Stop.

I'm using g++ vesion egcs-2.91.66

Thanks!
Mark

The message you've got says that you have a corrupted dependency (.d) file.
Please, get rid of that file by explicitly deleting it or by removing the
complete directory /.../tmp/Linux-g++/G4digits and then issuing the
"gmake global" command again from $G4INSTALL. If this fails, start your
installation from scratch (remove lib tmp and bin directories) and note any
incorrect behavior it may appear.
Also please, note that RedHat6.0 is not supported yet. It will be in future.
