Hi Anton,

Thanks for the helpful bug report! I guess you are building this copy of
AGILe for GENSER installation? The LCG platform *should* be autodetected
by the configure script: take a look at the config.log or terminal
output to see what's happening there. If it gets it wrong, please

a) Send us the terminal output and config.log, plus the output of "uname
-a", "lsb_release -a", and "gcc --version" so we can fix it
b) Re-run configure with an extra flag
--with-lcgtag=x86_64-slc5-gc43-opt (as required)

With your current build, you should also be able to do "export
LCG_PLATFORM=x86_64-slc5-gc43-opt" at runtime and get it working: we
should make that also do-able without needing to use environment
variables, and it certainly shouldn't be required for users of Genser
builds, but it may be a handy workaround for testing.

Best wishes,
Andy
