Package</h1>

Last updated July 20, 2009 for version 6.2.1-1</p></center>
<p>This page documents the Debian packaging for the deal.II finite element
library. You can read more about the library itself in the deal.ii-doc
package documentation.</p>
<hr/>
<h3>Package organization</h3>
<p>The deal.ii source package builds six binary packages:</p>
<ul>
<li><tt>libdeal.ii-dev</tt> contains symbolic links to the optimized
shared libraries using the deal.II library names, all of the header
files in <tt>/usr/include/deal.II</tt>, and all of the <tt>common/</tt>
files in <tt>/usr/share/deal.II</tt></li>
<li><tt>libdeal.ii6.2.1</tt> contains the optimized shared
libraries</li>
<li><tt>libdeal.ii-dbg</tt> contains symbolic links to the debugging
shared libraries using the deal.II library names</li>
<li><tt>libdeal.ii-dbg6.2.1</tt> contains the debugging shared
libraries</li>
<li><tt>deal.ii-doc</tt> contains all of the documentation, including
that generated from source code by doxygen</li>
<li><tt>deal.ii-examples</tt> contains the source code of tutorial
examples, whose documentation is in the <tt>deal.ii-doc</tt>
package</li>
</ul>
<p>To run the examples in the <tt>-examples</tt> package, you should be
able to do:</p>
<dl><dd><tt>cp -a /usr/share/doc/deal.ii-examples/step-1 .<br/>
cd step-1<br/>
make run</tt></dd></dl>
<p>If this doesn't work, with step-1 or any of the other examples, please
report the bug.</p>
<h3>Known bugs</h3>
(This section will go away when the package enters Debian and these can go
into the Bug Tracking System.)
<ul>
<li>The <tt>Makefiles</tt> in the -examples package do not work.</li>
<li>These libraries do not link directly to the PETSc libraries on which
they depend, but on the <tt>libpetsccall[.g].so</tt> library which in
turn links to the PETSc libraries. This is not good linking practice;
they should link directly instead.</li>
<li>It is not clear that the debugging and optimized libraries are
significantly different, or are even linked from different object
files. The Debian packaging doesn't strip debugging symbols from the
debugging libraries, but at this point that is the only known
difference.</li>
</ul>
