@jrohwer

When building PETSc (more specifically, petsc4py), one test (ex100 from ksp) will fail if a previous (major) version is installed. I could not figure out why this happens. The solution would be to build in a clean root (which is a little bit complicated due to dependency on other AUR packages) or simply uninstall the old version before.

Any help to solve this issue is welcomed.

The version 3.15.4-3 does not build for me (in a clean chroot with aurutils):

=========================================
Now to install the libraries do:
sudo make PETSC_DIR=/build/petsc/src/petsc-3.15.4 PETSC_ARCH=arch-linux-c-opt install

@carlosal1015: I missed some dependencies. Please let me know if the current version still does not work.

can you check the checksums ?

Validating source files with sha256sums...

petsc-lite-3.13.1.tar.gz ... Passed

@xantares: This is the first time that the extensive test suite (including popups) is exectuted. I'm not sure if that is the intended beavior, I guess not.

xantares commented on 2020-04-04 09:28 (UTC)

could "make test" be run with xvfb-run to avoid popups ?

hypre's latest update moved all include files in /usr/include/hypre, test_optdepends.sh should be updated.

When building this with aurutils the build fails with:

==> Starting prepare()...
rm: cannot remove '/logdest/logpipe.K4ZsD575': No such file or directory
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in prepare().

This seems to be an issue somewhere in the build toolchain (see https://github.com/AladW/aurutils/issues/19) but since I never had the issue with any other package I suggest just working around it by changing:

  while IFS= read file; do
    sed -i "s#$MATCH#\\1python2#" "$file"
  done < <( find ${srcdir} -name "*" -type f -exec grep -le "$MATCH" \{\} + )

to:

  find ${srcdir} -name "*" -type f -exec grep -le "$MATCH" \{\} + | \
    while IFS= read file; do
      sed -i "s#$MATCH#\\1python2#" "$file"
    done

(that works for me)

I'm disowning this package because I don't have the time to handle all dependency detection and their supported versions. I've created a petsc-git pacakge which downloads and installs all supported dependencies with eventual patches.

ChrisTX commented on 2018-09-04 10:34 (UTC)

HYPRE detection is currently broken, the correct version should be 2.14.0 and the naming scheme for the so file is libHYPRE-x.y.z.so now. Replacing the corresponding lines 14/15 in test_optdepends.sh with these fixes the problem:

    VERSION_MIN=2.14.0
    VERSION=$(readlink -f '/usr/lib/libHYPRE.so' | sed -r 's/^.*libHYPRE-(.*)\.so/\1/')
