Hi,

In past I have successfully installed Orca on Solaris and that wasn't a
problem. 
Now I want to install it on Redhat linux EL 3.0. In the installation
notes I noticed that SE toolkit is not required to be installed for
linux installs. 
Everything compiled and installed without errors. As root I did:
/usr/local/orca/bin $ ./start_orcallator 

And I got:

"When you configured Orca the se executable was not found.  If you
do not have the SE toolkit installed on your system, then follow
the steps in section 10 of INSTALL file that came with Orca.

Once you have the SE toolkit installed on your system, then either
rerun configure so that it finds se, or edit start_orcallator.sh
and define SE to the location of se."

Step 10 in install instructions in source package says: "10) [Solaris
Only and Optional] Install orcallator."

Since SE toolkit is not installed (and it looks like it's not needed on
linux) I ran: ./orca -v /usr/local/orca/lib/orcallator.cfg

Current running time is 0:00 minutes.
./orca: no data files found.  Make sure `find_files' parameter is set
properly.

Since orcallator is supposed to generate data for orca and setoolkit or
linux equivalent it not there how to set up orca to work on linux?

I have Perl v5.8.0 installed.
