[Users] Issues getting Einstein Toolkit built on Scientific Linux 6

[Joe Hellmers]

After adding the optionlist for sl6.cfg, I'm not getting the same error, but I am getting

sol_elliptic_sin_zec.C:56:31: error: gsl/gsl_sf_bessel.h: No such file or directory
make[5]: *** [sol_elliptic_sin_zec.o] Error 1
make[4]: *** [install] Error 2
make[3]: *** [Source/Non_class_members/PDE] Error 2
make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
make[2]: *** [cpp] Error 2

CST error 1:
 -> Configuration script for thorn LORENE returned exit code 1
    (no error message)

and then at the end

There were 2 errors during execution of the CST
These must be corrected before compilation can proceed
