Hi, thanks for your quick response.

Can you explain more on the steps you used to make abinit runs on
Ubuntu without problem ? For example, I was able to install abinit
with synaptic, but I cannot run the test.

If you can write the step by step guide, it will be great to put this
on Ubuntu knowledge database.

Looking forward to hearing from you,

Jimmy
