turbomachinery is on a distinguished road
Dear Foamers
Even no one gives me help on the my former post, I've read throughly the settings.sh, bashrc, prefs.sh and those readmes in the downloaded 1.6-ext. I found that some of the answers could be found from there.
Also, I've checked those who complains different kinds of errors during their compilation.
But maybe, for those beginners, I think the developers should tell them exactly about which softwares or dependencies should be installed. Then there'll no such complains on this sections.
Actually most of the problems were caused by the improper or uninstalled dependencies.
According to Prefs.sh, such softwares should be installed to compile the thirdparty software.
mesquite, metis, parmetis, parmgridgen, libccmio, scotch, cmake, python, Qt, bison, flex, m4.
I'm not sure whether my understandings are right or wrong. For those developers, please give us a hand on how to find which dependencies should be installed.
Best Regards,
Chuang Gao
