I didn't do anythign for the whole, was working on a paper, and have Eclipse open on some test codes (which has nothing to do with FDS).

It's in rpm format, I use alien to convert it to a deb package, and installed. I've never been able to build it yet, have been banging my head and asking for help on this list for a long time.
