[Pytables-users] segmentation fault on Mac OS X Lion when running tables.test()

[David D. <don...@gm...>]

Hi Everyone,

I am having problems running the tests for PyTables on Mac OS X Lion.
I have tried HDF5 version 1.8.5 as well, but I still get the same issue.

Any thoughts would be helpful...

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Best Regards,
David Donovan

Performing only a light (yet comprehensive) subset of the test suite.
If you want a more complete test, try passing the --heavy flag to this script
(or set the 'heavy' parameter in case you are using tables.test() call).
The whole suite will take more than 4 hours to complete on a relatively
modern CPU and around 512 MB of main memory.
