[OpenFOAM.org] What is going on with the installation of openfoam240?

JR22 · August 29, 2015, 08:26

Can somebody tell me what's going on with the installation of openfoam240? I am following instructions from http://www.openfoam.org/download/ubuntu.php. It looks like it can't find the package for ver 2.4, but it does for ver 2.3...

sudo apt-get install openfoam240 will not work, HOWEVER:

sudo apt-get install openfoam230 does work

see attached screenshot. Thanks.

A friend of mine helped me figure it out:

I have to do it under a different version, I was using "precise".
