2.1 Download
</H2>

<P>
Q<SMALL>UANTUM </SMALL>ESPRESSO is distributed in source form, but selected binary packages
and virtual machines are also available.
Stable and development releases of the Q<SMALL>UANTUM </SMALL>ESPRESSO source package
(current version is 6.7MaX), as well as available binary
packages, can be downloaded from the links listed in the
``Download'' section of <TT>www.quantum-espresso.org</TT>.

<P>
The Quantum Mobile virtual machine for Windows/Mac/Linux/Solaris
provides a complete Ubuntu Linux environment, containing Q<SMALL>UANTUM </SMALL>ESPRESSO and
more. Link and description in
<TT>https://www.materialscloud.org/work/quantum-mobile</TT>.

<P>
For source compilation, uncompress and unpack compressed archives
in the typical .tar.gz format using the command:
<PRE>
     tar zxvf qe-X.Y.Z.tar.gz
</PRE>
(a hyphen before "zxvf" is optional) where <TT>X.Y.Z</TT> stands for the
version number. If your version of <TT>tar</TT>
doesn't recognize the "z" flag:
<PRE>
     gunzip -c qe-X.Y.Z.tar.gz | tar xvf -
</PRE>
A directory <TT>qe-X.Y.Z/</TT> will be created.

<P>
A few additional packages that are not included in the base distribution
will be downloaded on demand at compile time, using <TT>make</TT>
(see Sec.<A HREF="node13.html#SubSec:Compilation">2.6</A>).
Note however that this will work only if the computer you are
installing on is directly connected to the internet and has
either <TT>wget</TT> or <TT>curl</TT> installed and working.
If you run into trouble, manually download each required package
into subdirectory <TT>archive/</TT>, <EM>not unpacking or
uncompressing it</EM>:
command <TT>make</TT> will take care of this during installation.

<P>
The Q<SMALL>UANTUM </SMALL>ESPRESSO distribution contains several directories. Some of them are
common to all packages:
