Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install tng on Fedora 34.

What is `tng`

TRAJNG (Trajectory next generation) is a program library for handling molecular dynamics (MD) trajectories. It can store coordinates, and optionally velocities and the H-matrix. Coordinates and velocities are stored with user-specified precision. In addition, program specific information (text strings) can optionally be stored in the beginning of each file. Atomic labels can also optionally be stored once in the beginning of the file. tng 1.8.2 8.fc34 x86_64 139 k tng-1.8.2-8.fc34.src.rpm fedora Trajectory Next Generation binary format manipulation library http BSD and zlib TRAJNG (Trajectory next generation) is a program library for handling molecular dynamics (MD) trajectories.

We can use yum or dnf to install tng on Fedora 34. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install tng.

Install tng 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 - 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 tng using dnf by running the following command:

sudo dnf -y install tng

Update yum database with yum using the following command.

sudo yum makecache --refresh
