geant4 direct installation for UBUNTU and DEBIAN

Here is the simplest installation method for geant4

Open terminal from Applications --> Accessories --> Terminal and type in:

sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
Now add the following lines at the end of the file and then save it and close.


deb http://lcg-heppkg.web.cern.ch/lcg-heppkg/debian stable hep
deb-src http://lcg-heppkg.web.cern.ch/lcg-heppkg/debian stable hep
Now in the terminal type in:
sudo apt-get install cern-archive-keyring

This will resolve the following problem while updating:

W: GPG error: http://lcg-heppkg.web.cern.ch stable Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY F464E3D84061544D

Now type in:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install geant4

That's all...

The root directory for geant4 installation is:

/usr/share/geant4

For post-installation settings follow the instructions in the post:



Cheers....

    I get the following error;


    Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
    requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
    distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
    or been moved out of Incoming.
    The following information may help to resolve the situation:

    The following packages have unmet dependencies:
    geant4 : Depends: libgeant4-dev but it is not going to be installed
    Depends: libgeant4-plists-dev but it is not going to be installed
    Depends: libg4opengl-dev but it is not going to be installed
    Depends: geant4-examples but it is not going to be installed
    E: Broken packages

    What am I supposed to do?

    I could be able to install it on Ubuntu natty 11.04.

    Please try it once again after taking all updates and upgrades.


    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

    Then verify whether the above mentioned two lines are added to sources.list file properly or not.

    Then


    sudo apt-get update

    sudo apt-get install cern-archive-keyring

    sudo apt-get install geant4


    Hope it works...

    Please update the further status...

    Cheers,
