A..2 Installation of pre-built binaries

Binaries are given as RPM (see http://www.rpm.org) packages which are installed in the standard way. There are two different RPMs: one contains the program, and the other documentation, and either may be installed independently of the other. At present these RPMs are not relocatable, and will install under /usr/local.

Once the program has been installed using, for example,

rpm -Uhv molpro-2002.7 .i386.rpm

some post-installation configuration is necessary, and this is accomplished by changing or adding options in the script file that runs the program, usually /usr/local/bin/molpro. Most importantly, a valid licence token must be given in a -k option. Other configuration options as described in section 3.6 may also be specified.
