Segmentation fault when Plotting

[toddChavezz]

Environment Info: Ubuntu 18.04 Python 3.9.16 All dependencies from environment.yml where installed with pip except for gdal which was installed with conda (gdal==3,6.2)

There is a Segmentation fault (core dumped) every time calling .plot() or .animation() for all models I tested. The same thing for all tests or examples that use these functions, for example tests.plotting.test_comparison() or examples/coastline_options.py. On the other hand, whenever .animation_profile() is called, like in examples/example_2d.py, for example, plotting works just fine.

Any help with that is highly appreciated! Let me know if you need more info on my setup.

Hi, There are probably some problems with combining Cartopy from pip and GDAL from conda.

We would recommend installing everything with conda/mamba, which should be faster, safer and easier: https://opendrift.github.io/install.html

indeed, this helped. appears to work now. sorry for not installing according to the recommendation, I didn't think this would affect anything. Thank you!
