[Radiance-general] Radiance 5.0 installation on ubuntu 14.04

[Humberto Antunes]

That error is already solved, just needed to install csh.

So after i run the sudo makeall install i got the message "There were some
errors", like you asked me to I went back to see what the error are and the
error listed is:

compilation terminated.
make: *** [x11findwind.o] Error 1

So I followed your advice installed libx11-dev and got the message "Done",
so i guess the installation of radiance is finally fine.

I am now starting you tutorial "The Three-Phase Method for Simulating
Complex Fenestration with Radiance", hope everything goes smoothly.

Thank you everyone for your help.

Best regards
Humberto A.
