[Insight-users] Installation Problems

[Jacob Boomgaarden]

  I am an intern working at the Arctic Research Supercomputing Center in
Fairbanks, AK. While working on a project it was determined that I
would need to make use of the ITK software. Since then I have been
running into problems trying to install the software onto my system.
Here are the short specs of what I am using and what is happening:

ITK version 1.6.0
CMake version 2.0.2 (downloaded for the IRIX64 platform)
MIPSpro C++ compiler version 7.41

After downloading CMake binaries and the ITK source, I proceeded to try
doing an out-of-source build by making a binary directory (build_dir) and
running ccmake ../(Insight-source) where build_dir and Insight-source are
sibling directories and Insight-source contains all the data downloaded
and extracted from the InsightToolkit-1.6.0.tar.gz file provided at
itk.org. Following the ItkSoftwareGuide, I then configured and generated
the Makefiles, ran the command 'make' and received the following compile
errors after several minutes of compiling:

If anyone is able to direct me on how to get this software properly
installed it would be of great assistance. Thank You.
