As far as I know, in order to use openfoam, it is necessary to source
/usr/share/openfoam/etc/bashrc beforehand. However, sourcing this file
fails with the message:

/usr/share/openfoam/etc/config.sh/setup:30: no such file or directory: /usr/share/openfoam/bin/foamEtcFile

More generally, all the files from bin/ in the source of openfoam seem to be
missing from the debian package. If that is intentional, how are we supposed
to run openfoam?

I'm able to run most of the OpenFOAM binaries by exporting
WM_PROJECT_DIR=/usr/share/openfoam
This does not work for the dynamically compiled code though.
