[QE-users] Failed to compile want and yambo from within the locally cloned Quantum-ESPRESSO gitlab repository.

[Hongyi Zhao]

On Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS, I try to compile want and yambo from within the
locally cloned Quantum-ESPRESSO gitlab repository, but failed as
following:

$ module load intel/oneapi/2021.2.0
$ make -j44 want

$ make -j44 yambo
[...]

config.status: error: cannot find input file: `install/make_lapack.inc.in'

But I find that they can be compiled by the following method:

$ module load intel/oneapi/2021.2.0
$ make all
$ cd WANT && make -j 44 all && cd -
$ cd YAMBO && make -j 44 all && cd -


Any hints for fixing this problem?
