[yt-users] Matplotlib installation failure on OS X

Tue May 21 10:07:04 PDT 2013

Thanks for your assistance. As Britton suggested, I used the Apple-provided compilers. But as Chris noted, I had trouble with sed while trying to export CC, so I made a symbolic link instead (to llvm-gcc, I'm not sure if it matters). Now it crashes on the 'Installing yt' step. The error message is included below. It looks like it can't link against gomp.

I am currently running again using Apple-provided non-llvm gcc to see if this fixes the problem.

If the compilers are in your bath, you might want to specify them directly by name, rather than the full pathname.

I downloaded the script from the suggested website (http://hg.yt-project.org/yt/raw/stable/doc/install_script.sh) and attempted to execute it with `bash install_script.sh.' I have tried a few different combinations of install options, but it always seems to fail while building matplotlib. My system is OS X 10.8.3, and gcc version 4.8.0 (installed from MacPorts). I have attached my yt_install.log.
