Andreas, Thank you very much for your quick reply! I will try building it from source with that flag and see if I have success with this method. One clarification I should have made: when I was receiving the error I outlined below, it was from installing PyOpenCL using "conda install pyopencl-2018.2.5-py37h8619c78_0.tar.bz2" as opposed to building it from source. Is there a way I can add a similar flag while doing "conda install" or do you think building it from source with that added flag is my best option?

Nonetheless, if you must build PyOpenCL from source, you should be able to use ./configure.py --cl-pretend-version=1.2 to force the version of the header that PyOpenCL uses. Alternatively, since (it seems) you are already using Anaconda, you might as well install our binary packages in conda-forge, see here: https://documen.tician.de/pyopencl/misc.html#installation (if that's an option) HTH, Andreas _______________________________________________ PyOpenCL mailing list -- pyopencl@tiker.net To unsubscribe send an email to pyopencl-le...@tiker.net
