[Anuga-user] Problem with runtests.py / _intel_fast_memset issue

[Christos A. <alt...@gm...>]

Hi Group,

I have been using anuga for more than a year now and I have to admit that
the developers have done an excellent job. I really thank you for this.
Until now I have been working on local machines and I never had a problem.

Currently, I am trying ti install ANUGA on a cluster where I do not have
superuser rights, so I am trying to install the code from source. I have
managed to install all the dependencies and all of them seem to be working
properly. Build_all.py works without problems and the installation seems to
be fine. Then when I am trying to import anuga or run the runtests.py I get
the following error:

Building, see build.log...
Build OK

undefined symbol: _intel_fast_memset

The problem is this _intel_fast_memset. I made sure that I do not load any
icc in my bashrc and that only gcc is used, and still I see this problem.
Is it possible that this happens due to the fact that some of the
dependencies might have been built with icc?? Have you encountered such an
issue in the past?? I am struggling to resolve this issue but I am out of
ideas.

If anything else fails I will try to install locally conda and do
everything through conda, but if somebody has some experience with a
similar problem I would appreciate sharing his/her experience.

Best
Christos
