To the ABINIT FORUM:

        I am trying to run the ABINIT-5.3.4 executable files on my G4 using 
MacOS 10.3.9 and am having trouble executing the basic tutorials. 

        I tried to run ABINIS in the 'opt'  folder.  Whether or not I have 
input files in this directory, I get the same error message on the UNIX 
terminal window after I double-click on ABINIS:

dyld: /Users/davidmckeown/Desktop/abinitbin-5.3.4/opt/abinis can't open 
library: /Volumes/export/local/opt/ibmcmp/lib/libxlf90.A.dylib  (No such file 
or directory, errno = 2)
Trace/BPT trap

        ABINIS is looking to access library files that it cannot find. These 
files are not in the abinitbin-5.3.4 folder, nor are they anywhere in my 
system. I also looked through your installation notes for v.5.3 and came 
across this:

"For the other platforms, the executable might not contain all the library 
routines  (this depends whether they have been linked dynamically or not), so 
they might not be as portable."

        Is this true for Abinit 5.3.4 for the Mac?

        If so, how do I obtain these library files?

        Any suggestions are appreciated...
