Scisoft causes problems with RCS “co” command. Why?
This is another name clash problem. There is a command “co” in the RCS code management system. There is also a “co” in the Gildas package which is defined by Scisoft. The “workaround” suggested is to use an alias for co which is usually “/usr/server/gnu/bin/co” on Solaris and /usr/bin/co on HP-UX. Alternatively one could modify the path, as mentioned in Q23.
