[QE-users] Problem installing QE in Windows 11 using Kali Linux

[Dumre, Bishal Babu B]

Hello there,

I am trying to install quantum espresso inside Windows 11. I am using Kali linux distribution. I tried using many other distributions but Kali linux was better than others. After installing dependencies like git and Fortran, I was able to run "./configure" command, but, finally the "make all" command does not work. I tried many variations of make all command, but it does not work. The details of error is given below:


$ make all
test -d bin || mkdir bin
cd install ; make -f extlibs_makefile libfox
make[1]: Entering directory '/mnt/c/Users/Bishal Dumre/Desktop/QuantumEspresso/qe-7.1/install'
if test ! -d ../FoX ; then \
  cd /mnt/c/Users/ Dumre/Desktop/QuantumEspresso/qe-7.1//external/fox; \
    ./configure --prefix=/mnt/c/Users/ Dumre/Desktop/QuantumEspresso/qe-7.1//FoX FC=gfortran FCFLAGS=""; \
    touch cp_test; \
    if cp -p cp_test cp_test_1; then \
        rm cp_test_1; \
        echo "cp -p works"; \
    else \
        find -type f | xargs sed -i 's/cp -p/cp/g'; \
    fi; \
    rm cp_test; \
    make install && make clean; \
 cd -; \
fi
