Fluka can be downloaded from http://www.fluka.org/fluka.php however an account is needed (SH has account information).
Fluka is only usable for a limited time period. Fluka user will request the installation of a new version if the current version stops working.
Installation of fluka-2011.2x (minor release number is ignored) with self-written (by SH) eb-file (see ~erle1100/InstallationPackagesCE/8.1/PHYS/fluka):
- First attempt failed, eb-file (ecxtension .eb-build) may be useful for future releases though. Problem was that flukahp executable was not working (floating point exception and core dumped). Probably due to too old glibc.
- Second attempt was to use the rpm. Steps taken:
- create a tar-file from the rpm
mkdir fluka-2011.2x cd fluka-2011.2x rpm2cpio ../fluka-2011.2x-3.x86_64.rpm | cpio -i -d rm -r etc mv usr/local/flukagfor/* . mv usr/local/share/doc/fluka/ ./doc rm -r usr cd .. tar -zcvf fluka-2011.2x.tar.gz fluka-2011.2x
- install with eb-file which includes postinstall commands to patch the binary flukahp:
postinstallcmds = [
'cd %(installdir)s && patchelf --set-interpreter $EBROOTGLIBC/lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 flukahp
&& patchelf --set-rpath $EBROOTGLIBC/lib flukahp && export FLUPRO=%(installdir)s && export FLUFOR=gfortran
&& flutil/ldpmqmd # && chmod -R o+u flutil && chmod -R o-w flutil'
]
