| Building the fallbacks within Abinit is mainly of interest to developers who want to experiment with compile flags and explore issues related to compilers and portability. It can also help - to a reduced extent only - users who are stuck within very rigid configurations and restricted build environments.\\ | Building the fallbacks within Abinit is mainly of interest to developers who want to experiment with compile flags and explore issues related to compilers and portability.

In further builds with the same compiler, the same fallbacks can be reused, i.e. no need to rebuild them. | + | Once the information is available to the configure script of the fallbacks, we can build them within the Abinit source tree and install them outside.\\ |
