That would be my first guess as well. But again, guessing is
necessary. They should at least make the IDL installer check for every
dependency that is not included in basic installs of the major
distributions, so that it could tell what is missing in most cases.
Even most configure scripts do a better job of complaining about
missing things.

It would also help if ITTVIS used a forum for support, instead of only
private emails to the users, so that we could search for previous
discussions of the same problems. As it is now, not many of the issues
make it to a tech tip.
