NI-VISA installation fails on Scientific Linux 6.0

Hi!

 

I am trying to install Labview 2012 on Scientific Linux 6.0 (regarding to the NI website this distro is supported).

 

The LabView installation works fine, but the subsequent NI-VISA installation terminates with the following error msg:

 

 


# ./INSTALL

*****************************************************************************
  NI-VISA for Linux
     version 5.2.0f0 for Linux

Obviously the installer finds the kernel source and gcc 4.4.6. Is there anything I can do to install NI-VISA on the system? If not, could you suggest me a linux distro which works with LV2012? I am tired trying several ones.

 

 

Thanks for you help!
