[yt-users] Problem installing yt on NASA Pleiades

[Eli Visbal]

Hello,

I am a postdoc at Columbia University fairly new to yt and am having
trouble installing it on the NASA Pleiades supercomputer. I was hoping
that someone else has figured this out before and could help me.

I tried running the yt install script obtained with:
wget http://bitbucket.org/yt_analysis/yt/raw/stable/doc/install_script.sh

When I attempt to run this script, it crashes giving the error message
copied below. I believe it may be related to the version of ssl on
Pleiades. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Best,
Eli Visbal
