The sources of CP2K are free for all users (GPL license), and all versions of the code are available from CVS.
Binaries are not yet provided, but the source is known to compile on a wide range of architectures and operating systems.
Installation instructions can be found in the file cp2k/INSTALL. We have two options to obtain the sources:
Anonymous CVS Access
The preferred way to obtain the sources is through anonymous CVS access.
No password (i.e. just press 'Enter') is needed to obtain the sources, but CVS needs to be installed on your machine.
The following will create a cp2k directory and download the source code and some example inputs.
touch $HOME/.cvspass
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.cp2k.berlios.de:/cvsroot/cp2k login
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.cp2k.berlios.de:/cvsroot/cp2k co cp2k
and updating the source to the latest version is as easy as:
cd cp2k
cvs update -dAP
look at the cvs manual pages to find out how to download an older verion of the code using 'cvs update -D ....'
FTP download
A nightly snapshot of the sources is made available as well. Download from ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cp2k/cp2k.tar.gz.
