The reason behind different versions for the same release is the difference in the packages included. The recent versions of  [http://lammps.sandia.gov/ LAMMPS] contain about 60 different packages that can be enabled when compiling the program. All the [http://lammps.sandia.gov/doc/Section_packages.html packages] are documented on the official web page of [http://lammps.sandia.gov/ LAMMPS] .

For each module installed on cvmfs, a file ''list-packages.txt '' is provided and gives the list of the supported and non-supported packages for that particular module. The different versions for one release mentioned above come from the fact on can not put all the packages in one binary.
For each module installed on cvmfs, a file ''list-packages.txt '' is provided and gives a list of supported and non-supported packages for that particular module. The different versions for one release mentioned above come from the fact one can not put all available packages in one binary. If for some reason, your simulation does not work with one module, it is more likely related to the fact that the corresponding package was not included.
 
To see or know more about the supported packages on a given module , do the following:


To see or know more about the packages, do the following:
* First load a particular module of LAMMPS (use <code>module -r spider '.*lammps.*'</code>  to see how to load a particular module).
