Install failure for MapleTA w/ SUSE 10.1

I cannot install MapleTA 2.51 with SUSE 10.1. It gives the same errors
as I see in the forum for Maple 10. The suggested fix for installing
Maple 10, commenting out the "export LD..." line, only leads to a new install error.
It says that a ".Z" file is not a gzip file.

Has anyone installed MapleTA 2.51 on SUSE 10.1 successfully?

How to do this.

The problem is with an assumption about the kernel.

If you copy the installation file to a directory on your hard drive. Make a copy
of the file, say LinuxInstaller.bin.bak. The use the following command to commment
out the offending line.

cat LinuxInstaller.bin.pak | sed "s/export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL/#xport LD_ASSUME_KERNEL/" > LinuxInstaller.bin

You can then use the installer. This is the same method as I used to install Maple 10 on SUSE 10.1 and
for Ubuntu 6.10.

This technique can be found on the Ubuntu community forum and varius other places.
