There is no Debian-specific installation tutorial, because we are in the process of preparing packages for the upcoming Abinit 6.6 version. This means that all dependencies will be taken care of by apt-get directly.

For now, you can do the following:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get build-dep abinit
sudo apt-get install gfortran openmpi-bin libopenmpi-dev patch


and then configure your freshly-downloaded Abinit source tarball the following way:

Code: Select all

mkdir tmp && cd tmp && ../configure --with-linalg-libs="-llapack-3 -lblas-3" --enable-mpi --with-mpi-prefix="/usr"


You might have to adjust the options depending on how recent your Debian system is.
