The DFTB+ code relies on external libraries. In order to able to compile the code, following libraries (or libraries compatible with those) must be present on your system.

• BLAS
• LAPACK 3.0

Additionaly there are some external libraries, which are distributed with the DFTB+ source, as part of the package. You don't have to (you should not) download those libraries by yourself. The terms and conditions for the redistribution of those libraries are specified by their own licences (found in the appropriate subdirectories in the DFTB+ source) and not by the DFTB+ licence.

• xmlf90

The DFTB+ code needs parametrisation data (Slater-Koster files) in order to perform a calculation for a certain system. Unlike for the predecessors of DFTB+, these parameters are not distributed with the code any more.

You can download the Slater-Koster files from dftb.org. The Slater-Koster files are distributed under a licence different from DFTB+, so that you'll have to sign a separate licence agreement. Please note, that the account which will be then created on the dftb.org site for you, will be separate from the one you eventually already have on dftb-plus.info.
