Hi Thanks for your quick response. Yes, I tried to install it from tar.gz Please check the below errors what I got, though I installed glib:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Perhaps you should add the directory containing `glib-2.0.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'glib-2.0' found Checking for GLib2 using pkg-config...(cached) failed: 'pkg-config --cflags --libs glib-2.0' exited 1 GLib2 and pkg-config are required to install this software. Install the glib2-devel and pkg-config (or similar) packages, or download the GLib2 sourcecode from www.gtk.org [group3@daisy mdt-5.2]$

I think here you mean you used the .tar.gz installer. Modeller source code isn't available.

MDT only requires Modeller, SWIG, glib and HDF5: http://salilab.org/mdt/5.2/doc/usage.html#compilation-from-source-code
All of these can be installed as a non-root user (and almost all RedHat installs come with glib already). What problems did you run into?

We don't support MDT for Windows. It probably works (we definitely know that it compiles with MSVC++ 2010 Express) but you may have to tweak things to make it work with your own setup.

No, MDT is not included with Modeller, on any platform.
