Updates the build from source instructions for Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04 to enable support for the adjoint solver (#1167) which requires
autograd
as a dependency. Also includes NLopt which is used in the tutorial examples. NLopt's pre-compiled binary (version2.4.2
) frompip
did not seem to work (the install succeeded but the module itself would not load within Python) and so is built from source which requirescmake
.Finally, building
h5py
from source to enable parallel HDF5 support required first installing Cython due to h5py/h5py#1533.
