Notes:
X11 & GUI installed in this way:
Code Block title X11 and GUI curl http://yum/centos-gui > /tmp/centos-gui /bin/sh /tmp/centos-gui
(very large set of packages, takes a long time...)
Software installed via the GUI: Thunderbird, emacs, LibreOffice
Code Block sudo gnome-software
Attempt to install FastX downloaded from www.starnet.com. Code is unpacked from a tar.gz file and run without any special installation. Attempt to configure SLAC but code fails with a relocation error associated with /lib64/libssl.so.10
TRS should not be used as it currently requires the use of DES enctypes that are insecure. WE have a todo to remove the ability for this weak-key to work. And are working to make TRS more secure so it can be used on Centos.
