ABINIT Discussion Forums

hi,
my configure script is aborting for missed md5 tarballs files which I downloaded manually.
so I am trying to disable this check.
thanks for suggestions.

Hi Hicpalm,

[dirty trick]

Try a MD5SUM=bogus ../configure i.e. define MD5SUM environment var with a bogus value. Configure will fail to check downloaded tars with "bogus" but will go on with a warning.

Hi Alain,
it works, thank you !

In the Configure script of abinit-6.6.1, atompaw-3.0.1.tar.gz is required, however, the different version, atompaw-3.0.tar.gz, is supplied in the abinit website. It is then necessary to manually download atompaw-3.0.1.tar.gz from the atompaw website.

Hi Goodwill,

The idea is to distribute Abinit 6.6 with Atompaw 3.0.1. but I have to check the status and update the distribution. Either you wait for 6.6.2 that should come out soon or you can download Atompaw 3.0.1 and compile Abinit with the generator as an external tool. I would not advise to trick Abinit 6.6.1 configure to build automatically Atompaw 3.0.1 by swapping the distribution files because there are patches that are applied against version 3.0. IIRW the corrections are related to rather exotic compilers support so 3.0 is fine.

Hi Goodwill,

You can download the correct version of atompaw from launchpad.net: https://launchpad.net/atompaw/+milestone/3.0.1

Abinit compiles well with this.
