Tips for ABINIT users and developers - OBSOLETE!

Installing abinit is completely standardized, following linux package conventions as

make install

Running make install will put the binary executables in a bin/ subdirectory, the documentation and test files in doc/ and so on.

The installation will happen in a reference install directory, which by default is /usr/local/. If you wish to choose your own installation directory, re-run

configure --prefix=<your chosen install point>

then

make

and then

make install

This allows access to the code for many users on a cluster, or the installation of several versions of abinit if necessary.
