Library dependencies - Linux

The installation requires system libraries that are not necessarily installed by default, but they are available through the package manager. Most of the additional libraries are required to run the computational programs in parallel on multiple processors or clusters, and to run thegraphical programs (mainly RobEM). Example of libraries needed to be installed on some Linux distributions:

CentOS

  • libraries needed for running the programs in parallel using MPI
    openmpi          (mpich2 as an alternative)
openmpi-devel    (mpich2-devel as an alternative)
  • libraries needed for running graphical programs
    libX11
libX11-devel
openmotif
openmotif-devel
libSM
libSM-devel
libICE
libICE-devel
libXext
libXext-devel
libXmu
libXmu-devel
libXp
libXp-devel
libXt
libXt-devel
