Has any one succeeded in installing Code Aster on OpenSUSE11

English Applications

I am trying to install code Aster 9.3 (redirection) on my computer running under openSuse 11.1, when starting the installation
python setup.py install

I got the following messages

python setup.py install
setup.py:40: DeprecationWarning: the sets module is deprecated
from sets import Set
/home/ahmed/Aster/aster-full-src-9.3.0/as_setup.py:41: DeprecationWarning: The popen2 module is deprecated. Use the subprocess module.

Can any one help me pin pointing my mistakes

Appreciate your help

Hi
It doesn’t look like you have some of the relevant development programs
installed?

Run the following from the CLI, do you see python devel, tcl etc
installed? There must be a list of prerequisites on the main website?


zypper se -i |grep devel

Hello There

The Code Aster programme is distributed as a source file with all the dependencies included.

What is needed basically is a Compiler to compile the code on the machine.
I have went through a process of eliminating all the no’s appearing in the setup log file, by downloading the corresponding files from the repositories.
I have downloaded gcc, nedit, gedit, blas, lapack and a lot of other files.

but here is the results of the latest attemp:

  Unable to find file gcc

I am positive I have downloaded, installed (Using Yast) this file two times, I do not understand why it is not located by the setup script

here is the complete log file,

Hi
What is the output from;


zypper se -i gcc

You should at least have gcc and gcc43, also came across this incase
you missed it Pré-requis - Code_Aster

Hello there
here is the output of the command zypper se -i gcc

both gcc and gcc43 are there. Why, if I may ask, the libgcc43-32bit is there, should not it be 64bit, I am totally confused. I used the original dvd to update my computer operating system to OpenSuse 11.1
Am I doing something wrong?
I highly appreciate your assistance

Hi
I would get rid of any of the gcc stuff that is not 4.3 related as if
you run the command ‘which gcc’ then do an ls -la on the command you
may find it’s softlinked to the incorrect version!

Having the 32 bit libraries is fine, if you want to compile for 32 bit
system you can.

For the above commands my output is;


which gcc
/usr/bin/gcc
ls -la /usr/bin/gcc
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 2009-01-24 21:31 /usr/bin/gcc -> gcc-4.3

The output I get is similar to what you have posted.
I went through the setup log file (created after the installer finishes) and have the following (Please read the last two lines)

for gfortran… /usr/bin/gfortran
Checking for compiler version… GNU Fortran (SUSE Linux) 4.3.2 [gcc-4_3-branch revision 141291]
Checking for pthread… -L/usr/lib64 -lpthread (already found)

Checking for libblas.a… /usr/lib64/libblas.a
Checking for libstdc++.so… /usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.3/libstdc++.so
Checking for F77 (/usr/bin/gfortran) is gfortran… yes
Checking for libg2c.a…(locate)… no
Checking for libg2c.so… no

the installer cannot locate libg2c.so and libg2c.a. I searched the repositories and located libg2c33. I ran the installer again, but it gave the same message.

Could you please help me locate libg2c.so and libg2c.a
that is the only “no” I get.

Appreciate your help

Hi
They are part of gcc33-fortran, so you may need to define the library
path in your configure statement (see ./configure --help)

In my case they are in this directory;
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i586-suse-linux/3.3.3-hammer/
