Hello, I'm an undergraduate student working with Professor Mandelbaum, and I'm having some trouble installing GalSim with fink on my Mac with OS X 10.8.
I've worked with an earlier version of GalSim over this past summer, where I had a lot of difficulty getting it to build against boost, however we were eventually able to get it working. When I tried to update the software this past week, I had similar troubles building against boost, so I decided to try a fink installation.
After updating fink, I ran
fink install galsim
This seemed to work fine, but when I open up the python installed by fink in /sw/bin/python2.7 and try to import galsim, I get the following error:
Richards-MacBook-Pro:~ Rick$ /sw/bin/python2.7
Python 2.7.3 (default, Jul 5 2012, 16:14:02)
[GCC 4.2.1 Compatible Apple Clang 3.1 (tags/Apple/clang-318.0.61)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
import galsim
Segmentation fault: 11
Since this didn't work, I tried simply uninstalling galsim and reinstalling it, but when I ran "fink remove galsim", I got the following error:
WARNING: galsim is not installed, skipping.
For some reason it's saying galsim is not installed, even though I seemed to install in without any problems earlier.
I then tried to do a fresh installation of fink in case there were some settings in my old fink that were messing it up. When I try to install galsim with this, I get the following error:
Can't resolve dependency "xcode (>= 4.5)" for package "gcc47-4.7.2-1000" (no
matching packages/versions found)
Exiting with failure.
It seems like it's saying it needs xcode to be version 4.5 or above, which
is strange, since my version of Xcode is 4.5.2.
Anyway, I now have two installations of fink on my computer with yield different errors when trying to install galsim.
Thanks!
