Scicoslab/Scipad: Upgrading from 8.70 to 8.71

Note: This guide is for Linux.

1. Download from source
2. Instructions are here: installation guide
3. However, to move files from the unzipped source to the scicoslab directory ( /usr/lib/scicoslab-gtk-4.4.1/), use

sudo cp -r scipad/*  /usr/lib/scicoslab-gtk-4.4.1/

The lesson here is that mv command doesn't have -r option, so cp is all right.

4. Then start scicoslab with root privilege

sudo scicoslab

5. Issue the following under scicoslab

genlib("utillib");

Exit and restart scicoslab, and that will be okay.
