oasys bombs because shadow3 about shadow3 HOT 3 CLOSED

It looks that the problem is not the compiler:
it bombs with python 3.6.5
it works with python 3.6.3!!!

from shadow3.

Indeed, the problem is more subtil.

It is not depending neither on the python nor the conda version.

The problem is with conda: there is a conflict with the fortran libraries installed by conda when installing xraylib.

If one preforms the installation of shadow3 with conda is OK.

If one installs xraylib and then shadow3, there is no compilation problem but bombs when copying strings in fortran. In fact it bombs in something like this, which is completely legal and correct in fortran:

   integer(kind=ski)  :: length2
   character(len=80)  :: SLENGTH

   length2 = 2
   write(slength,fmt=*) length2

The solution is may be to avoid to install xraylib using conda.

I confess I am not a fan of conda, I spent three days in this!!

Hi Manolo,

The problem here is not the xraylib conda package but numpy, which is responsible for dragging in the libgfortran shared library.

For this problem to stop occurring, I recommend you compile shadow3 with the gfortran compiler from conda, not the one provided by the system.

Hope this helps!
