Problem install on of OpenMx 0.4.1-1320 on Red Hat 4.1.2-46

It may be that I'm receiving a corrupted tarball.

I'm running Linux version 2.6.18-164.11.1.el5 (mockbuild@builder10.centos.org) (gcc version
4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-46)) #1 SMP Wed Jan 20 07:32:21 EST 2010
On a Quad-Core AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 2378

I get the following long list of warnings. OpenMx appears to install and load without errors, but then I get segmentation faults when calling the optimizer. The model to optimize is the first optimization example in the user guide.

Hi, I have a problem in installing OpenMX with R-2.11.0 and gcc 4.5.0 20100610 (prerelease) on ArchLinux with i686 architecture. The compilation interrupts because of the npsol library missing:

class "MxModel" does not extend that class

Hello everybody,

we are very new to R and OpenMx and are trying to get it running on Debian GNU/Linux Lenny. We downloaded and (successfully) installed the openmx-package. But when we try to run our Script we get the following error:

##
Error in initialize(value, ...) :
cannot use object of class "character" in new(): class "MxModel" does not extend that class
Calls: DAF_simulation ... mxModel -> firstArgument -> new -> initialize -> initialize
Execution halted

Problems installing 0.2.5 on R 2.10.1

I just tried installing 0.2.5 on two different x86_64 systems, both running R 2.10.1.
On one, running Red Hat EL 5, I get a memory mapping failure and a segfault, I think from NPSOL. On the other, running Ubuntu 8, the install completes but OpenMx doesnt show up in installed.packages(), and the first tutorial example fails.

Are people running these combinations successfully?

Below is some of my output; I've attached the install logs and other info. The 3 files without system names are from the RHEL5 system;
OpenMax.ubuntu8.install.txt is from the Ubuntu system.
