There seems to be a compatibility issue between the latest guile and meep:

Downgrading guile to 2.11 does solve the issue for the time being.

It is working for me with hdf5-cpp-fortran and running meep-mpi.
Also, I usually make sure meep is re-compiled after any changes in its dependencies.

This issue seems to be related to the parallel version of hdf5:

Is this package still working correctly for anyone? I successfully compiled this with all the most up-to-date dependencies without changing any flags but then received this error when running (meep bend-flux.ctl)

heitzmann, thanks for the reply. Indeed, adding "--enable-shared" to CXXFLAGS while building mpb fixes the problem. I will update the mpb PKGBUILD shortly.

McNoggins, it seems the problem might be because meep is compiling with support for mpb on your machine (I suspect you have mpb installed).
In that case, try recompiling mpb with the -fPIC option as indicated in the error report.
Does that work?

Should be possible to compile by removing the "--enable-shared" compilation flag.

I get build errors

Sure, no problem!

heitzmann, I just saw that you both maintain libctl and python2-meep, so maybe you would be a better maintained for the "sitting-in-between" meep package.

haawda commented on 2015-08-14 17:39

seems correct, fixed.
