Install Intel Compiler(icc) in Ubuntu 8.10

To install icc in Ubuntu:

1. Download icc from Intel website


2. tar -zxvf the file.


3. Run 'install.sh'.


4. Follow the installer instructions.


5. When it is done add this line to your ~/.bashrc (or initialization script):
   source /opt/intel/Compiler/11.0/069/bin/iccvars.sh ia32
   Replace ia32 with your platform: (ia32, intel64, ia64)


6. Log off and log in and that is it. You can test it with icc -v


7. To use icc with a configure script use ./configure CC=icc

NOTE: If you get a libimf.so error like "file does not exists" while using sudo, you will need to write a bash script adding "source /opt/intel/Compiler/11.0/069/bin/iccvars.sh" and the program you are trying to run.
