Current status:
It is possible to build Fluidity on OSX 10.8 with *all* tests passing.
The following branch was used:
https:/
which contains changes to libwm and to allow METIS 5 and Parmetis 4 to be used (through the DARWIN configure flag - an unashamed hack).
in combination with:
- custom builds of PETSc 3.3 and Zoltan
- packages from macports (including GNU tools) and gcc (4.7 was used)
- selection of GNU tools over OSX defaults
- links for correct names of MPI executables
- some environment jiggery-pokery for compile and linking FLAGS
- Trang is not in macports and was manually installed
Other branches might be useful in https:/
For the macports local repo, see: /scratch/asc/repo/
Most of it is irrelevant material from a bitbucket branch - see https:/
which I tried to use, but have instead gone for the special versions of PETSc and Zoltan that James started. I've modified these, although I'm not sure how much now - take a look in the repo on scratch. The bitbucket branch seemed like a nice approach which allowed different types of MPI to be used - and also has builds of METIS and Parmetis (although not now used in the current setup).
You'll also need trang. I started a Portfile for it, but didn't finish. I based my install on the Ubuntu trang package - basically downloading, unarchiving and installing files.
This setup also provides Diamond, working with XQuartz.
libajoint not tackled.
