The ABINIT Users Mailing List ( CLOSED )

["Anglade Pierre-Matthieu" <anglade@gmail.com>]

Since abinit 5.2.2 is passing all the automated tests flying colors,
there must not be any significant difference unless:
a) there were a bug in abinit 4.6.5 which have been corrected
b) there is a bug in abinit 5.2.2 which is triggered by your
calculation and by none of the test.


Here is a list of command to issue in order to compile the latest
versions of abinit on a sun with "Sun fortran 95 8.2". You might want
to change the optimization flags:
tar zxf abinit-5.2.3.tar.gz
cd abinit-5.2.3
mkdir tmp
cd tmp
../configure FCFLAGS="-O1 -M. -M../../../src/defs -M../.. -M../defs"
cp ../src/defs/dummy_functions.inc src/defs/.
make multi

I'm sending you the compiled binary by email. Beware it's a little bit
uge (10MB).

regards

PMA
