Dear Alain and Sir

Thank you very much for your help.

i have got  the binaries, docs and tests
installed  in my desired directory by  specifying   --prefix=/home/kumarsonu/Desktop/DESKTOP/  during the configuration step.

BUT i have doubts..

since /opt is present in PATH, so  do i need to add the location of binaries, docs, etc. in the PATH ?

Also i got the banaries two times

i.e. one in new directory created "abinit" in/home/kumarsonu/Desktop/DESKTOP/  due to configure --prefix=/home/kumarsonu/Desktop/DESKTOP/

and other in abinit-5.8.4/src/ 98_main/ directory.

is it OK ?

Internal tests works in abinit-5.8.4/ directory. In this directory "make tests_in","make tests_speed","make tests_fast","make tests_cpu" work well,

 but "make test1" does not give any output.It says..

~/Desktop/DESKTOP/abinit-5.8.4> make test1
make: *** No rule to make target `test1'.  Stop.

with kind Regards

Dear Kumar,

make test_in    is a short test set, enough to see whether the installation is correct, whose output is directly seen by the user.
make check     is a much longer comprehensive test set. For the understanding of the output, see the install notes on the Web,
                             http://www.abinit.org/documentation/helpfiles/for-v5.8/install_notes/install.html#make_tests

hi dear all

i tried to make the executables for the sequential version 5.8.4 of ab-init on
32 bit intel dual core system with gfortran compiler.

1) ./configure
2) make

seems to work fine.

Then i typed  "make check"

...
OK for stresses

If it says OK ... then it's OK :-)

...

and the process of checking is going on...

HOW MUCH time will it take?

It depends on the the performance of your linux system ... it is a short
tests set, it doesn't take long

and I ALSO WANT TO KNOW is compilation complete or not???

from the directory you made configure and make, "ls -la src/98_main" and
you should see the binaries - abinis, cut3d, anaddb, ...
If you invoke a "make install", you'll have the binaries, docs and tests
installed - in /opt as you didn't specify a --prefix= during the
configuration step.

Kind regards,

Alain
