A fellow GA user is having trouble with GA 5.2 on Mavericks with MPICH 3.0.4 We have tried many things, including switching from Clang to GCC and all sorts of different configure options. There appears to be some issue with GCC on Mac (goto X) that makes linking MPICH break.

I cannot reproduce this error because I neither have Intel Fortran on any Mac nor have I upgraded to Mavericks.

Can you ask your fellow to install like this?: $ brew install mpich2 --enable-shared A friend of mine has similar issues when using static libraries, however I remember this was also related to Python distutils from the Anaconda Python distribution insisting on using an old OS X deployment target.

First, is there a Mavericks Mac in MCS to which I can SSH in order to test the non-ifort part of this? Even better if said Mac has ifort...

Second, can someone help me resolve the MPICH_ATTR_TYPE_TAG issues?

Ask your fellow to make sure to have the latest Xcode, "brew doctor" will tell. I've been having this issue a few month ago, it was related to a know clang issue that eventually got fixed in latest Xcode. -- Lisandro Dalcin --------------- CIMEC (UNL/CONICET) Predio CONICET-Santa Fe Colectora RN 168 Km 472, Paraje El Pozo 3000 Santa Fe, Argentina Tel: +54-342-4511594 (ext 1016) Tel/Fax: +54-342-4511169
