1.1 Installing Debian/Ubuntu Packages

Binary packages are available for current Debian/Ubuntu based Linux distributions. These can be installed through the use of standard system package management utilities, such as Apt, if administrative access is available.

1. Create a configuration file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nektar.list containing the appropriate line from the following table.

   Distribution	Repository
   Debian 9.0 (stretch)	deb http://www.nektar.info/debian-stretch stretch contrib
   Debian 10.0 (buster)	deb http://www.nektar.info/debian-buster buster contrib
   Debian 11.0 (testing/bullseye)	deb http://www.nektar.info/debian-bullseye bullseye contrib
   Debian (unstable)	deb http://www.nektar.info/debian-unstable unstable contrib
   Ubuntu 16.04 (xenial xerus)	deb http://www.nektar.info/ubuntu-xenial xenial contrib
   Ubuntu 18.04 (bionic beaver)	deb http://www.nektar.info/ubuntu-bionic bionic contrib
   Ubuntu 20.04 (focal fossa)	deb http://www.nektar.info/ubuntu-focal focal contrib

2. Update the main package list /etc/apt/sources.list to include the non-free component, by appending (if not already present) the word non-free after main.
3. Install the Nektar++ repository GPG key:
   wget -qO- https://www.nektar.info/nektar-apt.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
4. Update the package lists
   apt update
5. Install specific Nektar++ packages as required, or install the complete suite with:
   apt install nektar++

   Any additional dependencies required by Nektar++ will be automatically installed.

   Tip: Nektar++ is split into multiple packages for the different components of the software. A list of available Nektar++ packages can be found using:

   apt search nektar++
