This step is optional.
Once you have tested all parts of the Sowing distribution, you may install
sowing into
a publically available directory, and disseminate information for other users,
so that everyone can use the shared installation.
To install the libraries and include files in a
publicly available place, choose a directory, such as /usr/local/sowing,
change to the top-level sowing directory, and do
make installThe man pages will have been copied with the installation, so you might want to add /usr/local/mpi/man to the default system MANPATH. The man pages can be conveniently browsed with the mpiman command, found in the sowing/bin directory.
A good way to handle multiple releases of sowing is to install
them into directories whose names include the version number and then
set a link from sowing to that directory. For example, if the
current version is 1.0, the installation commands to install into
/usr/local are
configure --prefix=/usr/local/sowing-1.0 make make install rm /usr/local/sowing ln -s /usr/local/sowing-1.1.0 /usr/local/sowing
