mriconvert: Installing MRIconvert on Scientific Linux 5.8

[Chuck Theobald]

Hello Christa,

My apologies, but the web site is incorrect on how to install wxWidgets. 
The correct command is:

yum install wxGTK

You may need to add the correct repository to your yum configuration to 
find wxGTK, it was not available on my stock CentOS 5.7. I added the 
rpmforge repository to yum, following instructions at

http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories/RPMForge#head-5aabf02717d5b6b12d47edbc5811404998926a1b

Then "yum install wxGTK" installed version 2.8.12 wx libraries to 
/usr/lib64.

Regards,
Chuck
