This page is dedicated to explaining how to install OpenFOAM OF Version 220.png in Debian. This instructions page might send you to the one for Ubuntu basically due to the close similarity between Ubuntu and Debian, since Ubuntu derives from Debian.

      VERS=$(lsb_release -cs)
      should be replaced with this one:
      VERS=quantal
  • You can install from source, by either:
