Maybe I came accross it. These variables must be set before compiling meep:
export CFLAGS=" -fPIC" export CXXFLAGS=" -fPIC" export FFLAGS=" -fPIC" I now can succesfully build and install the python-meep module; however, running "import meep_mpi" in python fails on: ImportError: /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/_meep_mpi.so: undefined symbol: _ZN3MPI3Win4FreeEv This is somehow related to the OpenMPI1.6 package I am using. I will try recompiling with another MPI package available in Ubuntu, such as OpenMPI or MPICH2. 2013/2/5, Filip Dominec <[email protected]>: > Dear MEEP users, I am trying to compile the latest version of > python-meep with MPI support from scratch. > First I compiled meep-mpi (against MPICH2).
