Build error in "Linking CXX executable struc_to_unstruc"

[erdchris]

Hello. I'm trying to build the latest SEACAS under RHEL 8.8 using Intel 2022.2.0 (and GCC 8.2.0). Build dies here:

These were my steps:

export ACCESS=`pwd`
export SHARED=YES
export MPI=NO
export CRAY=NO
export COMPILER=intel
export INSTALL_PATH=/app/unsupported/SEACAS/v2023-11-04
mkdir $INSTALL_PATH

export CXX=icpc
export CC=icc
export FC=ifort
export F77=ifort
export F90=ifort
export CFLAGS="-O2 -fPIC -gcc-name=`which gcc`"
export CXXFLAGS="-O2 -fPIC -gxx-name=`which g++`"
export FFLAGS="-fPIC"
export LDFLAGS="-O2 -gcc-name=`which gcc` -gxx-name=`which g++`"

module load cmake/3.28.0-intel-2022.2.0

./install-tpl.sh

mkdir build
cd build
export BUILDDIR=`pwd`
../cmake-config
make

It looks like lib::fmt was installed incorrectly, or was built with a different compiler or set of compiler flags. Does /app/unsupported/SEACAS/v2023-11-04/lib have a libfmt.so?

I don't know whether specifying both COMPILER=intel and the explicitly setting CXX, CC, ... is causing some confusion about versions...

[erdchris]

Thanks gsjaardema. The compiler and options should be the same for all parts. The lib does exist:

lib/libfmt.so -> libfmt.so.10
lib/libfmt.so.10 -> libfmt.so.10.1.1
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 user group 315024 Nov 6 08:54 lib/libfmt.so.10.1.1

I was using basically the same recipe from 2 years ago -- the last time I built SEACAS. I did build today with GNU only, and that worked.

[gsjaardema]

Ok,this might be related to intel then. There have been issues in the past with libfmt and intel versions...

[gsjaardema]

I've moved this to an issue #422 since easier to track and I think more relavant...

[gsjaardema]

@erdchris See temporary workaround/kluge in #422.
