 Posted: Thu Feb 11, 2016 10:36 am Post subject: dolfin requires both ufc and ffc, which can not coexist |
 |
|
Hello,
I'm trying to install FEniCS, or more specifically, its dolfin interface.
I found sci-mathematics/dolfin.
As preliminaries, I updated my system (and @world set), installed sci-libs/cholmod and sci-mathematics/cgal, and added the use flags to dolfin so it uses those two packages (*).
emerge fails since dolfin pulls in both sci-mathematics/ufc and dev-python/ffc, which can not coexist. They seem to offer similar functionality. Perhaps dev-python/ffc is the official replacement for the unofficial sci-mathematics/ufc and the dolfin ebuild is out of date?
Any ideas how to overcome this?
(highlights from emerge's output are below)
(*) the same block was present before I installed choldmod and cgal and set the use flags to use them.
many thanks,
Amnon

| You can work around it with USE="-python", though I've no idea whether it's needed for any important functionality. |

Thanks for the suggestion Ant P.
As it happens, the python interface is exactly what I need, so your advice will not work for my case.
Looking a bit more into it, the dolfin ebuild looks hopelessly outdated:
1. "ufc" is a deprecated component of dolfin, which was replaced with "ffc" in 2014.
2. As far as I can tell, the ebuild is basically from 2010.
FEniCS's idea of "installation from source" is to install another package manager, hashdist, and build from it. This seems like anathema to a gentoo system. But I guess that's the only way to go forward with this. At least I saw it working on Fedora. |

Hallo everybody!
I'd like to install a fem-feniks into the octave, but it requires dolfin
| Code: | checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes
checking for dolfin... no
error: pkg: error running the configure script for fem-fenics
|
I don't find any packages i.e. sci-mathematics/dolfin, also tno overlays in the http://gpo.zugaina.org/Search?search=dolfin
Do it means that in gentoo the dolfin support is completely removed?
P.S. the target is to install on octave something like pdetool in matlab. |
