The fact that that the "installer" is a csh script is a bad sign (as is
the fact that there is an "installer" at all).  If possible get the bare
rpm package and install it with alien.  I'd suggest building from source
but I suspect that the build system is a nightmare (and probably also a
csh script, but I repeat myself).
