Precompiled Packages for Ubuntu
-------------------------------
Precompiled packages of [Meep version 1.17.1](https://github.com/NanoComp/meep/releases/tag/v1.17.1) (January 2021) with Python interface will be available for [Ubuntu 21.04 ("Hirsute Hippo")](https://packages.ubuntu.com/hirsute/python3-meep) in April 2021. We recommend Ubuntu as Meep and all of its dependencies will be able to be installed using just one line:
```sh
sudo apt-get install python3-meep h5utils
```
You will also be able to install the [parallel version of Meep](https://packages.ubuntu.com/hirsute/python3-meep-openmpi) which is based on [OpenMPI](https://www.open-mpi.org/) using:
```sh
sudo apt-get install python3-meep-openmpi
```
These upcoming Meep packages for Ubuntu 21.04 are derived from the Debian 11 ("Bullseye") packages ([serial](https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/python3-meep) and [parallel](https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/python3-meep-openmpi)). Debian 11 is currently the testing distribution.
