How To Install ghemical on Fedora 34
ghemical is Molecular mechanics and quantum mechanics front end for GNOME
Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install ghemical on Fedora 34.
What is ghemical
Ghemical is a computational chemistry application. Ghemical is written in C++. It has a graphical user interface (in fact, a couple of them), and it supports both quantum-mechanics (semi-empirical and ab initio) models and molecular mechanics models (there is an experimental Tripos 5.2-like force field for organic molecules). Also a tool for reduced protein models is included. Geometry optimization, molecular dynamics and a large set of visualization tools are currently available.
We can use yum or dnf to install ghemical on Fedora 34. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install ghemical.
Install ghemical on Fedora 34 Using dnf
Update yum database with dnf using the following command.
sudo dnf makecache --refresh
The output should look something like this:
Fedora 34 - x86_64 20 kB/s | 6.6 kB 00:00
Fedora 34 openh264 (From Cisco) - x86_64 1.4 kB/s | 989 B 00:00
Fedora Modular 34 - x86_64 68 kB/s | 6.5 kB 00:00
Fedora 34 - x86_64 - Updates 3.5 kB/s | 6.2 kB 00:01
Fedora Modular 34 - x86_64 - Updates 17 kB/s | 5.9 kB 00:00
Metadata cache created.
After updating yum database, We can install ghemical using dnf by running the following command:
sudo dnf -y install ghemical
Install ghemical on Fedora 34 Using yum
Update yum database with yum using the following command.
sudo yum makecache --refresh
The output should look something like this:
Fedora 34 - x86_64 20 kB/s | 6.6 kB 00:00
Fedora 34 openh264 (From Cisco) - x86_64 1.4 kB/s | 989 B 00:00
Fedora Modular 34 - x86_64 68 kB/s | 6.5 kB 00:00
Fedora 34 - x86_64 - Updates 3.5 kB/s | 6.2 kB 00:01
Fedora Modular 34 - x86_64 - Updates 17 kB/s | 5.9 kB 00:00
Metadata cache created.
After updating yum database, We can install ghemical using yum by running the following command:
sudo yum -y install ghemical
How To Uninstall ghemical on Fedora 34
To uninstall only the ghemical package we can use the following command:
sudo dnf remove ghemical
