dependency versions

[gyk...@gmail.com]

Dear Developers,

I am trying to install RAxML-NG v1.2.1 and did succeed using pre-compiled binaries. However, I have the obsessive compulsive feeling that it would work better had I built it from the source specifically on the cluster I am using. (Am I right?) But I can not, see the error message below.

I suspect there is some version incompatibility. What versions of GNU, Flex, GMP, GCC do you recommend? I have installed Flex v2.6.4, and added its bin folder to the PATH. That should be enough regarding Flex, right?

Best regards,

Gyozo

Not necessarily. If you are not using MPI, the pre-compiled raxml-ng binary should work reasonably
well / fast,

But I can not, see the error message below.

Seems like CMake detected the "wrong" C compiler, please see:

Hope this helps,
