[phenixbb] "Open in Coot" not working on 1.6.1-357

Hi Nat,

I knew about this one:

/programs/l/coot/0.6.2-pre-1-r2969/bin/coot-real --version
0.6.2-pre-1 (revision 2969)  [with guile 1.8.7 embedded] [with python 2.6.0 embedded]

Ah, that's handy.

So first off I see that I somehow got an older version of Coot lodged in my
~/.phenix/prefs.params file.  It was pointing to a linux Coot 0.6.1 32-bit
installation.  I assume that will override the phenix.find_coot_command?

Once I removed that, I can get our 64-bit installations of PHENIX and Coot
to cooperate.  On the 64-bit version I see:

Coot: Running python script /programs/i386-linux/phenix/1.6.2-432/phenix-1.6.2-432/phenix/wxGUI2/Coot.py
Coot: Loading PHENIX Coot extensions. . .
Coot: xml-rpc server running on port 46712

And then the coot output as it reads the data files.  On the 32-bit version
I see:

Coot: Running python script /programs/i386-linux/phenix/1.6.2-432/phenix-1.6.2-432/phenix/wxGUI2/Coot.py
Coot: (use-graphics-interface-state)

And the buttons and molecule are not loaded.

I built the 32-bit Coot on CentOS 4 and the 64-bit Coot on CentOS 5.
They're both using the autobuilder script with identical arguments, but
using Paul's 32-bit CentOS build works fine, so there's definitely
something gone amuck in our 32-bit build.

The Mac problems appear to have cleared up when I removed the hard-coded
path to the linux version of Coot in my preferences file.

So everything's working as expected now.  Thanks for your assistance.
