[Insight-users] Configure ITK for 64-bit Linux

Hi Luis,

Thanks for your help.  The output to the commands you suggested was:

$ file /usr/lib64/libuuid.so
/usr/lib64/libuuid.so: symbolic link to `/lib64/libuuid.so.1'

$ file /lib64/libuuid.so.1
/lib64/libuuid.so.1: symbolic link to `libuuid.so.1.2'

$ file /lib64/libuuid.so.1.2
/lib64/libuuid.so.1.2: ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, AMD x86-64,  
version 1 (SYSV), stripped

Some background:
The system I'm using is a thirty-five node compute cluster where each  
cluster node is running a 64-bit Linux OS.  I'm attempting to use  
Condor to manage a job.  My program compiled on the head node, which  
is a 32-bit machine, but failed when Condor tried to use the cluster  
nodes.  I'm now trying to compile my code from one of the cluster  
nodes to debug.  First it appeared that the UUID libraries were  
missing.  I don't have administrator privileges on these machines, but  
the system admin was able to install both uuid and uuid-devel packages  
on the node I'm using.  Now the libraries are there, but CMake will  
not link to them.  I've also tried setting the  
FIND_LIBRARY_USE_LIB64_PATHS property, but this did not resolve the  
problem.

Thanks,
Sara
