Installing Xfoil on Ubuntu

[Icarosaurus]

Here it is:
Xfoil 6.96 .deb package

Compiled with intel fortran compiler, on an amd athlon machine, all in double precision.
Let me know...

Awesome! I would have uploaded mine but the size limit is too low. You thought about contacting getdeb.net?

[Icarosaurus]

Yes...I thought contacting getdeb.
Actually I'm taking an account. Stay tuned

I am trying to install Xfoil in Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon i have follwed the instructions on this thread and in the readme files that come with the files but i cannot build the plot library.

Can anyone help?

Try downloading my deb package for 32 bit machines here.
Let me know...

[phillip_peters52]

After downloading the deb package and typing in the xfoil command to run i receive this error message

xfoil: error while loading shared libraries: libifport.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Thank you for your report.
I have your same problem with Hardy.
The problem is related to an Intel Fortran library... I'll try to fix it as soon as possible.

Hey,

Even I got the error about the intel fortran compiler, but it worked fine when I installed following the instruction on the first page of the thread (from scientificcomputing)

Thanks a lot!

As i said previously i have tried installing from the directions on the first page and cannot get the plot library to compile.

Following the advice given I then trid installing from the debian package and got the error messae above.

I'll soon release a package. Please be patient
