\aevol{} is available as a deb package but it is still in the ``testing'' repositories. You should be able to \verb?apt-get install aevol? soon.
\aevol{} 4.4 is available as a deb package in all the
repositories. So, you can \verb?apt install aevol? provided the 4.4
version fits your needs. \aevol{} 5 should also hit the repositories
soon.
\aevol{} should soon be available as an rpm package.
\subsection{Installation from Source}
Installation commands are given for Debian-like systems (\verb?apt?)
as well as Fedora-like systems (\verb?dnf?).

\subsection{Installation from Source}
\subsubsection{Required Dependencies}
\begin{myList}
\item\textbf{C++ command-line compiler}. Mac users should have a command-line C++ compiler like g++ or clang installed. One easy way to get it is to install XCode (freely downloadable from the App Store), to start XCode and to install the Command Line Tools package from the menu XCode / Preferences / Downloads / tab `` Components''. Alternatively, you can also install the Command Line Tools package for Xcode without installing Xcode itself, by downloading it from Apple's developer site (free registration required) and search for ``Command Line Tools''.
\item\textbf{Compression library}. \aevol{} compresses most of the data it uses using the zlib1g library. This library is already included as part of Mac OS X so there is no need to install it.
\item\textbf{C++ command-line compiler}. Mac users need a
command-line C++ compiler like \verb?g++? or \verb?clang?
installed.
There are three options:
\begin{description}
\item [App Store] If your computer runs OS X El Capitan (10.11), you
can first install XCode (freely downloadable from the App Store),
then start XCode and install the Command Line Tools package from
the menu XCode / Preferences / Downloads / tab `` Components''.
\item [Standalone Command Line Tools] Alternatively, but still
provided your computer runs OS X El Capitan (10.11), you can
install the Command Line Tools package for Xcode (without
installing Xcode itself) by downloading it from Apple's developer
site. A free registration required there, then just search for
``Command Line Tools''.
\item [Homebrew] For all versions of \macos{}, another way is to
install Homebrew to get the appropriate packages. To install
Homebrew, you have to open a terminal and type (or copy/paste,
Then you can install the appropriate dependencies with:
\begin{verbatim}
brew install boost clang-omp

data it uses using the zlib1g library. This library is already
included as part of \macos{} so there is no need to install it.
\end{myList}
\subsubsection{Optional Dependencies}
\begin{myList}
\item\textbf{X libraries}. For the graphical outputs, Mac users should also have X11 installed. X11 is not included with Mac OS X, but X11 server and client libraries for OS X are available from the XQuartz project (\url{http://xquartz.macosforge.org}). You will need to log out and log in after the installation to have X11 properly setup. Note, however, that \aevol{} can be compiled without graphical outputs, and hence no need for X libraries, by typing \verb?./configure --without-x? instead of \verb?./configure? (see below). This option is useful if you want to run \aevol{} on a computer cluster, for example.

the Homebrew way, you may just
\verb?brew install Caskroom/cask/xquartz?. In either case, don't
forget to re-log for proper install to be completed.
