Jenny,
May I ask were you got those list of binaries... Was is from the Release Notes page? I ask because we link to some "official" patches on the release notes page but we also frequently give people "dev" versions of some binaries to help solve a particular issue that they may be having. Those dev version are not official patches.
Also, the release version appear statically linked because they get run through a utility called 'upx' which shrinks them but changes how the 'file' and 'ld' command process them. The binaries you mention below have not been run through that utility.

Hi guys!
We would like to install the latest and greatest FreeSurfer on the processing cluster used by the CNDA at Washington University. We’re thinking about installing the 5.3.0-HCP, and then over that, the released 5.3.0 patches. We’re looking for verification that doing the install this way makes sense and that these two code sets don’t conflict in any way.
We know that the 5.3.0-HCP version updates the mris_make_surfaces, however, the patches do not include that update, which is why we are thinking about starting with 5.3.0-HCP as the base install. Note that this is being done on CentOS 6.x
The currently available patches seem to include:
mni152reg
mri_mcsim
mri_segstats
recon-all
tksurfer-sess
tksurferfv
Is that a complete list or did we miss some binaries/scripts?
Also, it seems that the ‘patch’ binaries are dynamically linked, while the release binaries are statically linked. Besides dependency issues, could this cause an issue with results consistency, etc. if other system libraries get updated?
Thanks, guys. Hope all is well.
