[Debichem-devel] Jmol : ftbfs?

[Georges Khaznadar]

Hello Michael,

I downloaded the version 12.0.28 of Jmol from sourceforge.net, then
cheched out the debian subdirectiry from our repository.

When I try to build Jmol, I get the following errors, which sound as a
circular dependency: JmolPanel.java needs to have a constructor for a Jmol
instance, while Jmol.java needs to have a constructor for JmolPanel
(though I do not understand precisely why "super(jmolApp, splash, frame,
parent, startupWidth, startupHeight, commandOptions, loc)" should
trigger such an error)

Here is the report:
