Yes, I have deleted the previous dealii and restart from unpack the compressed package, so I think the name of the parent directory is not the problem.
I have googled the reason for "Scanning dependencies of target expand_instantiations_exe cmake/scripts/CMakeFiles/expand_instantiations_exe.dir/depend.make:4: *** missing separator. Stop." and it is probably caused by the default editor on my Linux system(some error occurs if confuse Tab with space) so I have changed the default editor to vim but still doesn't work. Then I checked the file under the directory of the error message (build /cmake/scripts/CMakeFiles/expand_instantiations_exe.dir/) open the file "depend.make", and find the following file content: # CMAKE generated file: DO NOT EDIT! # Generated by "Unix Makefiles" Generator, CMake Version 3.5 cmake/scripts/CMakeFiles/expand_instantiations_exe.dir/expand_instantiations.cc.o: ../cmake/scripts/expand_instantiations.cc I'm not sure if this is where the error lies and don't know how to solve this. Sincerely hope someone can help me with this. 在 2017年8月17日星期四 UTC+8下午7:35:59，Jean-Paul Pelteret写道： > > Hi, > > Did you delete your build directory after renaming the parent directory? > If not, then you might want to do so and try to configure and build deal.II > again.
