Installation of 3.5.0 on MacOS

Post by iandkelly »

Hi Marc,

As per your recommendation on my recent post on using gpsh on MacOS (viewtopic.php?t=573), I've been trying to install Geopsy 3.5.0-preview from git on MacOS, following the same instructions as for the source package (https://www.geopsy.org/wiki/index.php/I ... sy_package).

However, I'm coming across an error whilst trying to make in the build directory that I can't seem to solve:

Code: Select all

ld: library not found for -lhdf5_serial
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
make[1]: *** [../lib/GeopsyCore.framework/GeopsyCore] Error 1
make: *** [sub-GeopsyCore-make_first-ordered] Error 2
Having a look at the various configure and make files, it seems that libhdf5-serial is a required dependency for both Linux and MacOS, a change from 3.4 versions of Geopsy. However, whilst the serial version of hdf5 is available for Linux systems, I can't seem to find a way to download that dependency for MacOS - it's not available through Homebrew or Macports.

Is there any way of getting past this apart from setting up a virtual machine? Could i just delete the -ldf5_serial dependencies from the config and make files?

Thanks for everything!

Best,

Ian

With branch 3.6, the presence of these third party libraries are tested during the configuration. If not found, the code using these libraries is skipped during the compilation.

I am trying to install the current version of Geopsy from source on my new Mac (macOS Sequoia 15.0). I installed Xcode, QT last version and FFTW (3.3.5 and 3.3.10), but I have several errors. I am wondering if someone had dig into it. Thank you
