Massimo,
In order to decide whether to recommend using the new install_ossim2.sh 
or not, I'd like you to explain briefly:

1. Is it possible/likely that this update will effect any other 
application? If so, which applications? Have you tested these 
applications after the updated script has been run?

2. How beneficial is the upgrade to ossim? Note, it seems that the OSSIM 
tests have failed. Could you please look into this asap too:
