Problems installing the TMDlib package

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around the installation of the TMDlib package (v.2.2.10) and an error encountered when running the TMDlib_Fortran.F example. After following the installation instructions and downloading a PDF set, the user receives an error indicating that a specific file does not exist in the expected directory. It is suggested that the error arises because the program is looking for a file named ccfm-JH-2013-set1.info, which is not found. Recommendations include checking the example Fortran code for necessary edits or command line arguments and consulting the manual for further guidance.

TL;DR Summary
The conversation discusses the installation and use of the TMDlib source package from http://tmdlib.hepforge.org/.
I'm trying to install the TMDlib package (v.2.2.10). I followed the instructions from the README file:

./configure --prefix=/home/alexey/Software/TMDLIB --with-lhapdf=/home/alexey/Software/LHAPDF
make
make install

Next, I installed one of the PDF sets:

./TMDlib-getdata ccfm-JH-2013-set1

Everything was going well, but when I run the TMDlib_Fortran.F example I get an error

TMDinfo: file does not exist /home/alexey/Software/TMDLIB/share/tmdlib//.info
return on EXIT_FAILURE

Has anyone encountered a similar error?
Best regards!

I'm not surprised that file does not exist, it should be looking for something like ccfm-JH-2013-set1.info in whatever path you have downloaded it into. You probably need to edit something in the example Fortran code, or pass it a command line argument.

Reading the fine manual might be a good idea at this point.
 
Thread 'Is this public key encryption?'
I've tried to intuit public key encryption but never quite managed. But this seems to wrap it up in a bow. This seems to be a very elegant way of transmitting a message publicly that only the sender and receiver can decipher. Is this how PKE works? No, it cant be. In the above case, the requester knows the target's "secret" key - because they have his ID, and therefore knows his birthdate.
I tried a web search "the loss of programming ", and found an article saying that all aspects of writing, developing, and testing software programs will one day all be handled through artificial intelligence. One must wonder then, who is responsible. WHO is responsible for any problems, bugs, deficiencies, or whatever malfunctions which the programs make their users endure? Things may work wrong however the "wrong" happens. AI needs to fix the problems for the users. Any way to...
