How To Install voro++ on Fedora 34

voro++ is Library for 3D computations of the Voronoi tessellation Library for 3D computations of the Voronoi tessellation

Introduction

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

What is `voro++`

Voro++ is a software library for carrying out three-dimensional computations of the Voronoi tessellation. A distinguishing feature of the Voro++ library is that it carries out cell-based calculations, computing the Voronoi cell for each particle individually. It is particularly well-suited for applications that rely on cell-based statistics, where features of Voronoi cells (e.g. volume, centroid, number of faces) can be used to analyze a system of particles. voro++ 0.4.6 22.fc34 x86_64 158 k voro++-0.4.6-22.fc34.src.rpm fedora Library for 3D computations of the Voronoi tessellation http LBNL BSD Voro++ is a software library for carrying out three-dimensional computations of the Voronoi tessellation.

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

Install voro++ 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 voro++ using dnf by running the following command:

sudo dnf -y install voro++

Install voro++ 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 voro++ using yum by running the following command:

sudo yum -y install voro++

How To Uninstall voro++ on Fedora 34

To uninstall only the voro++ package we can use the following command:

sudo dnf remove voro++
