This directory contains libraries that can be linked with when building LAMMPS, if particular packages are included in a LAMMPS build. The library itself must be built first, so that a lib*.a file exists for LAMMPS to link against.

Each library directory contains a README with additional info about how to build the library. This may require you to edit one of the provided Makefiles to make it suitable for your machine.

The libraries included in the LAMMPS distribution are the following:
