Chimera installs lib/libRMF.so, and UCSF IMP also installs
lib/libRMF.so, so that they can't be used together, despite the claim
that "IMP can also be used from the Chimera
<http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/> molecular modeling system" (see
https://integrativemodeling.org/).
Please unbundle libRMF (https://github.com/salilab/rmf), and use an
external package for it.
Also imagine if some other software used libRMF too, how can they all be
installed together? Bundling is a mess. Please never bundle software
packages because this only causes problems down the road.
I also asked IMP to unbundle libRMF.so:

Thanks,
Yuri
