== Version 1.7.1 ==

OpenFOAM is a free, open source CFD software package produced by a commercial company, OpenCFD Ltd. It has a large user base across most areas of engineering and science, from both commercial and academic organisations. OpenFOAM has an extensive range of features to solve anything from complex fluid flows involving chemical reactions, turbulence and heat transfer, to solid dynamics and electromagnetic.
  
Needs to be built with gcc 4.4.4 or newer.  Gcc 4.4.4, in turn, requires a bunch of stuff so we have the following (in the order in which they should be built).

# Be wary of changing their default directory structure.  Although it appears easy to do in the "etc/bashrc" file, there are places in the wmake build system that seem to be hardwired for the "$WM_PROJECT-$WM_PROJECT_VERSION" structure and parts of the build will fail.  
 
# When building the support software (ppl, gmp, etc.), it is probably best to specify "--libdir=<prefix>/lib64" to the configure script.  Gcc will build both 32 and 64 bit libraries so you will end up with a mix of 32 and 64-bit libraries in your <prefix>/lib dir if you aren't specific.
 
# The default OpenFOAM installation denies access to most of the files and directories to "other".  If others are to use the install, the permissions on many files have to be changed from 750 -> 755, 740 -> 744, and 640 -> 644.
