Admin notes:
Part of the distro on Ubuntu 14.04.
For 12.04 and below: I installed the binary 'semishared' package from the home page in an attempt to avoid having to recompile this for every new image. Its version number is 1.5.17 although when it loads it claims to be version 1.6.
To test it try a few of the molecules off the File>Examples menu.
