Is there a different way to install the Calculix adapter with preCICE 3.2 for Ubuntu 24.04. I followed the current documentation to build the calculix adapter from source. After running `make -j 4`, i ended up with all these files in the `bin` folder.

But it doesn’t contain the `ccx_preCICE` file in the `bin`.

I used `calculix-precice2_2.20.0-1_amd64_jammy.debmaster.tar.gz` as my base file to create the `calculix-adapter-master` folder. In my case, since I am using `Ubuntu 24.04 Noble`, is there a different package for calculix and precice that I should be using?

@som1197 what was the output of `make`? There was probably an error, since `ccx_preCICE` was not generated.

I am not sure what you mean here, but mixing packages between different Ubuntu versions will not work.

I have opened a pull request to update our package generation for the next CalculiX adapter release, but maintenance of that adapter is rather sparse at the moment:
