I'm +1 on making things more explicit in the install_script message to users (particularly of mac). I think most people treat it like a black box and hope for the best. And if it breaks they come here. If something popped up and said, *make sure you have xcode gcc installed*, it might be better for all involved.<br>

Hi Casey,<br>
<br>
Thanks for the summary of the options -- perhaps we should make the<br>
warning more explicit in the install_script?<br>
<br>
With respect to things being far behind, I think the situation will<br>
only get worse. Apple stopped updating gcc when they moved to GPLv3,<br>
and have started shipping their own stack based on LLVM. Perhaps a<br>
brainstorming session of options -- the Xcode gcc, AT&T research<br>
gfortran, Macports, other binary installers, etc etc -- would be<br>
helpful over on yt-dev for addressing how to keep up to date with GCC<br>
as well as ensure compatibility with as much as possible.<br>

That's a good point Sam. I've seen a lot of people reccomend the hpc for Mac<br>
compilers, but they don't support many Darwin specific flags, causing common<br>
build systems to break. This took way too long to figure out as a new Mac<br>
user. Much better to stick with Xcode gcc and get the AT&T research<br>
gfortran.<br>
<br>
If you really want a new version of gnu compilers (kind of amazing how far<br>
behind they are), I think macports has newer versions built to have the<br>
apple flags.<br>

Beware -- updating gcc to anything past 4.2 will likely break the compile<br>
on a mac. You want to make sure to use the Xcode gcc, which you should be<br>
able to do by setting:<br>
<br>
export CC=gcc-4.2<br>
export CXX=g++-4.2<br>
<br>
or the equivaltent command in csh if you aren't a bash person. If you had<br>
done that, then I'm not sure what the problem would be. You'll likely have<br>
to wipe the existing install for those exports to do you any good.<br>

Hi Nathan,<br>
<br>
This is also a mac - but I'll suggest we update gcc. Thanks!<br>

Hi Elizabeth,<br>
<br>
I tried running the install script on my mac laptop after your e-mail.<br>
I was able to build yt from the install script with no problems.<br>
<br>
It would help if you could let us know a bit more about the system<br>
you're trying to build yt on. In particular, I think you'll run into issues<br>
if you're using an old version of gcc that doesn't support OpenMP. Version<br>
4.2 or newer should work.<br>

Hi Andrew,<br>

We ran the install script from scratch, so I assume it would have<br>
installed the version of cython it needed?<br>

I saw errors like this when I tried to use an older version of Cython.<br>
Are you sure that you're using version 0.16?<br>
