tcsh build w/ CrayGNU on Sisu segfaults #2584

Open boegel opened 8 years ago

The issue with WRF in #2434 on Sisu is because the tcsh we build is broken; it segfaults:

hoste@sisu-login2:~> module load tcsh/6.18.01-CrayGNU-2015.11-XC
hoste@sisu-login2:~> tcsh
Segmentation fault

hoste@sisu-login2:~> gdb $(which tcsh)

may be related to a bug in tcsh, cfr. http://mx.gw.com/pipermail/tcsh/2010-August/004177.html

I also tried the most recent tcsh version (6.19.00), same issue.

a workaround for this is to use the tcsh provided by the OS:

osdependencies = ['tcsh']
