Dear ALPS community I try to download and install ALPS 2.0 version in Ubuntu 10.10 by following the structure in the ALPS home page. First of all: I have downloaded its source file ==> (Source .tar.gz including the Boost library 1.45)(66MB) and unzipped it in my /home/javad directory Second: I have added the binary packages to ==> /etc/apt/sources.list deb http://www.cpht.polytechnique.fr/ubuntu maverick alps deb-src http://www.cpht.polytechnique.fr/ubuntu maverick alps Third: I have Installed required packages using Synaptic package manager: cmake-curses-gui libboost-all-dev libhdf5-serial-dev libfftw3-dev gfortran python-matplotlib python-scipy python-h5py liblapack-dev In the fourth step: I have really no idea how to deal with by the following structure: $ $HOME/src/alps2/script/cmake. sh $HOME/opt $HOME/tmp $ $HOME/src/alps2/script/hdf5.sh $HOME/opt $HOME/tmp I am totally confused. Thank you very much in advance -- Best Regards Javad Vahedi,
