Prblem with ubuntu18.04 to ubuntu20.04 transition #2831

Closed litman90 closed 3 years ago

litman90 commented 3 years ago

Description
When our workflow transitionated from ubuntu18.04 to ubuntu20.04 our regression tests started to fail. We could not identify the specific source of the error. Our code (https://github.com/i-pi/i-pi) runs atomistic simulations and it contains python3 and Fortran language.

Virtual environments affected

Repro steps
Example of a successful set of tests in ubuntu18.04 (https://github.com/i-pi/i-pi/actions/runs/617770427) Example of a set of tests with failures in Ubuntu 20.04: https://github.com/i-pi/i-pi/actions/runs/617668833

Hello, @litman90 I think you can switch back to ubuntu 18.04 in the pipeline. os: ["ubuntu-latest"] -> os: ["ubuntu-18.04"]

Thank you @al-cheb We did that indeed and for now, it solves the problem. However at some point, ubuntu-18.04 will become deprecated, so we have to think ahead.

@litman90 we don't have a plan to drop Ubuntu-18.04 support shortly
