Hi Aaron, I see Will has already given a holding reply. Can I ask you to forward a 'corepop' that works to me? I suspect you are right that that is the underlying issue. Unfortunately if we do not have a matching corepop we have quite an ugly failure mode. I'll add a ticket to the project to improve the failure messages.
In addition to a working corepop we also need to know the kernel version. But I saw that you already added that previously. So just the corepop should be fine. In a later message you mention about not installing in /usr/local/poplog. I will discuss that with Will and see if we can come up with a plan. That folder is the natural default choice when installing from the make file. We could make the install refuse to happen if there's a pre-existing installation and emit some helpful instructions? To install it somewhere else just changing the 'prefix' e.g. make install prefix=~/local That will install Poplog to your personal local folder (assuming you have one).
