| You need to have **[[https://www.open-mpi.org/|open-mpi]]** or some other mpi implementation and **[[https://polymake.org/doku.php|polymake]]** version at least 3.2 installed. In particular, you need the **[[https://polymake.org/doku.php/reference/callable|polymake callable library]]**, which might not be installed by the package manager of your distribution. Furthermore, you need an installation of **[[https://www.inf.ethz.ch/personal/fukudak/cdd_home/|cdd]]**, the bundled version coming with polymake does not build the cdd library. | You need to have **[[https://www.open-mpi.org/|open-mpi]]** or some other mpi implementation and **[[https://polymake.org/doku.php|polymake]]** version at least 3.2 installed.
