[yt-users] yt install script on NICS Kraken

[Matthew Turk]

Hi David,

Unfortunately, compiling with the PGI compilers on Kraken (unless you
are doing a static-linking, which Stephen Skory has documented here:
http://yt.enzotools.org/wiki/CrayXT5Installation ) is a bit of a pain.
 I would recommend that you use gcc.  I'm afraid I don't know how to
get the PGI compilers to work properly -- but you might be able to do
some modification of the LD_LIBRARY_PATH to make them work.

I'd recommend that you run the install script, unmodified, after
module swapping the PGI for GNU environments:

$ module swap PrgEnv-pgi PrgEnv-gnu
$ bash install_script.sh

In a fresh environment, this works for me.  If you already have run
the install script, you may have to remove your existing yt
installation directory and run it again.  I apologize that this is a
bit of a time-consuming task, but I believe it should work.

Good luck, and please let us know if this works!

-Matt
