Installing gpvdm for Linux from source

    Foreword

    If you want to use gpvdm for science I personally recommend you use the windows version as it's much more polished than the linux version. This is simply because of the number of users the windows version has in comparison Linux version. Having said this here are the instructions to install the Linux version from source. If you would like features added to the model do feel free to get in touch.

  1. Clone the git repositry:

    Note this will be the beading edge copy of gpvdm, if it does not compile drop me a mail.
  2. Navigate to the directory containing the dependency scripts. Gpvdm needs a large number of other programs/libraries to run/compile if these are not installed gpvdm will not work. The directory build_system/dependency_scripts contains simple bash scripts to install these dependencies. I do not update them very often, so if you are using the latest version of an OS, you might need to hunt around for the needed dependencies and update the scripts. Once the packages are installed run:

    ./build

    you should get a screen looking like this:


  3. Now select auto, and follow the instructions.


  4. gpvdm should just build for your archecture/distribution.

  5. Consider forking gpvdm on github

    By forking gpvdm you help preserve the code base for future researchers.
