Hello, I'm reporting these make check failures on OSX Lion 10.7.4 for Homebrew, a package installer for Macs. I am trying to author the updated install script for openmpi-1.6.0 using Homebrew, but I get a few test failures using the default compiler, clang-3.1.
Note: I get no test failures using llvm-gcc-4.2.1 (5658, 2336.9). My setup: iMac from 2009 OSX Lion 10.7.4 Core i5 quad-core 64-bit nehalem 8MB RAM XCode 4.3.2 clang 3.1 (build 318) gfortran 4.2.4-5666.3 I took a look at your FAQ and searched both users and devel lists for clang and OSX posts concerning test failures, but I only found one thread where a clang bug was found concerning weak symbols. http://www.open-mpi.org/community/lists/users/2010/10/14438.php http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=8383 As the bug report on llvm.org is still open with no updates, I just tested it, and clang-3.1 returns an error now instead of compiling that: $ clang -shared -fvisibility=hidden weak.c -o libweak.so && nm -D libweak.so | grep foo weak.c:6:36: error: only weak aliases are supported on darwin int foo_b(void) __attribute((weak, alias(("foo_c")))); ^ So here is what happened with me and openmpi-1.6.0 and make check: configure terminal output - https://gist.github.com/2720855 config.log - https://raw.github.com/gist/2720840 make V=1 log - https://raw.github.com/gist/2720893 make V=1 check - https://gist.github.com/2720908 Let me know how I can help. I suppose the warnings between lines 745-800 of the log for make check in datatype are significant where there are a couple of array out of bounds errors, and later the abort trap 6 messages. Also line 1811 of the configure terminal output mentioned Darwin being an unknown architecture. Okay that's about it. I hope it was ok to gist those logs as versus load your mail server up, but I can fix that if you need it. 2bits
