* Overview
|
|
OpenFOAM-dev is the latest major release of OpenFOAM including many new
|
|
developments a number of bug-fixes. This release passes our standard tests
|
|
and the tutorials have been broadly checked. Please report any bugs by
|
|
following the link: http://www.openfoam.com/bugs.
|
|
|
|
* GNU/Linux version
|
|
This release of OpenFOAM is distributed primarily in 2 ways: (1) as a Debian
|
|
pack containing binaries and source; (2) from the SourceForge source code
|
|
repository (see [[./README.org][README]]).
|
|
|
|
The Ubuntu/Debian pack is available for 32 and 64 bit versions of the 10.04
|
|
LTS operating system using the system compiler and libraries that will be
|
|
installed automatically from standard Debian packs.
|
|
|
|
To use the source version from the SourceForge repository, we provide a source
|
|
pack of third-party packages that can be compiled on the user's system. This
|
|
does not include =gcc=, since the system installed version is typically
|
|
sufficient, but includes =paraview-3.8.0=, =openmpi-1.4.1=, =scotch_5.1=, =metis-5.0pre2=, =ParMetis-3.1= and =ParMGridGen-1.0=.
