Re: bug forum

Hi Blake,

    I don't think the forums are being trolled very actively so this 
e-mail list is probably your best bet for getting a quick response at 
the moment.

    I believe the problem you are seeing is coming from a non-up-to-date 
version of JANA. You should grab the latest, numbered version from the 
JANA web page (currently 0.4.4 at 
http://www.jlab.org/JANA/releases/jana_0.4.4.tgz).

The building and installation have changed a little recently, but there 
is an INSTALL file inside the src directory once you untar it. Let me 
know if you still have trouble.

Regards,
-David
