== Ubuntu 8.10 - 64 bit install == This is the process to install a numpy ANUGA onto a 64 bit Ubuntu 8.10 system. The procedure to install onto a later Ubuntu system should be similar. Source package installations require you to unpack a *.tgz file. It doesn't matter ''where'' you do this, as you don't need the unpacked directory after a successful installation. You could use /tmp, for instance. Using the Ubuntu Synaptic package manager, install the following packages: {{{ subversion python-dev python-profiler g++ python-numpy }}} Of course, if you prefer using the console, you could do: {{{ sudo install subversion }}} and so on. You need to specify a special flag for source package builds: {{{ export CFLAGS=-fPIC }}} Note: you must execute the above console command in any terminal in which you do the NetCDF and !ScientificPython source builds (below). Next, you need to install NetCDF 4.0.1 from the source package: {{{ tar xzf netcdf.tar.gz cd netcdf-4.0.1 ./configure make check sudo make install }}} Now install !ScientificPython 2.9.0: {{{ tar xzf ScientificPython-2.9.0.tar.gz cd ScientificPython-2.9.0 python setup.py build --numpy sudo python setup.py install }}} And finally, install matplotlib through Synaptic: {{{ python-matplotlib }}} The procedure to test your new ANUGA system is at [wiki:NumpyUbuntuTest Ubuntu - post-installation test and validation].
