Error during pyradex installation

[isabelmontoyaa]

Hello,

I have been trying to install pyradex with no success. I have a MacBook Pro, macOS Ventura 13.3.1

$ python -c "import sys, astropy, numpy; print(sys.version); print(numpy.version,astropy.version)" 3.10.11 (main, Apr 20 2023, 13:59:00) [Clang 14.0.6 ] 1.22.3 5.1

$ gfortran --version GNU Fortran (MacPorts gcc12 12.2.0_2+stdlib_flag) 12.2.0

By reading Issues #39 and #40, I have tried the following (with no success):

1. Inside the folder Radex/src I ran: f2py -c -m radex --f77flags=-fno-automatic --fcompiler=gfortran -I/Users/isabelmontoyaarroyave/Documents/PhD_Oslo/PhD/Research_tools/radex_emcee-master/pyradex/Radex/src -L/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/usr/lib *.f

2. cd ../.. and then ran: FFLAGS='-arch i686 -arch x86_64 -fPIC' CFLAGS='-fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -dynamic -arch i386 -arch x86_64 -g -O2' LDFLAGS='-arch i686 -arch x86_64 -undefined dynamic_lookup -bundle' python setup.py install_radex

And here is the prompt:

I would appreciate any help! Thanks!

This is a really unhelpful error message from fortran, unfortunately! It doesn't give any clues about what's happening.

You are using a different version of python & fortran than others. I have a few suggestions for how you might search for a fix/workaround, but no guarantee this will work:

1. try installing a conda environment and building pyradex in that environment
2. see if you can compile the fortran code at all, not using f2py. This may help us figure out if fortran is the problem or if f2py is. However... I tried this with the gfortran installed on my machine and it failed immediately in a way that I think is not helpful, so I'm not sure this will work:

   $ gfortran -I/Users/adam/repos/pyradex/Radex/src -L/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/usr/lib -fno-automatic main.f
   gfortran: warning: couldn’t understand kern.osversion ‘21.6.0
   ld: warning: building for macOS 10.4 is deprecated
   ld: library not found for -lgcc_s.10.4
   collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

There may be missing libraries or flags you need to get pyradex to install, but we'll have to dig to figure out what.

Hi,

So I tried compiling gfortran alone, and this is what I get:

$ gfortran -I/Users/isabel/Documents/PhD_Oslo/personalPC/pyradex/Radex/src -L/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/usr/lib main.f

[keflavich]

What architecture is your system? Are you on an M1 or M2, or an older mac?

[isabelmontoyaa]

I am on an older Mac (2019), intel core i7

[keflavich]

OK, weird, those are better-behaved than the new ARM ones. I'm not sure what to do about this. My best guess is that you have some incomplete libraries, but I don't know why.

...maybe try FFLAGS='-arch i686 -arch x86_64 -fPIC' CFLAGS='-fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -dynamic -arch i386 -arch x86_64 -g -O2' LDFLAGS='-arch i686 -arch x86_64 -undefined dynamic_lookup -bundle gfortran -I/Users/isabel/Documents/PhD_Oslo/personalPC/pyradex/Radex/src -L/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/usr/lib main.f i.e., set all the flags before compiling, and see if that works?

Otherwise, you should try a conda installation

[isabelmontoyaa]

I tried that and still no luck.

$ FFLAGS='-arch i686 -arch x86_64 -fPIC' CFLAGS='-fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -dynamic -arch i386 -arch x86_64 -g -O2' LDFLAGS='-arch i686 -arch x86_64 -undefined dynamic_lookup -bundle' gfortran -I/Users/isabelmontoyaarroyave/Documents/PhD_Oslo/PhD/Research_tools/radex_emcee-master/pyradex/Radex/src -L/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/usr/lib main.f

Do you mean a conda installation of gfortran?

[keflavich]

Maybe. I think on mac, conda defaults to using the built-in compilers. But it might install additional libraries?

[isabelmontoyaa]

Okay, after losing (what felt like) years of my life, the issue was apparently a non-compatible version of the linker (ld). When checking which ld it was using, it returned:

$ which -a ld
/opt/anaconda3/bin/ld
/opt/local/bin/ld
/usr/bin/ld

And after changing my $PATH variable to set /opt/local/bin/ld as the first one, it worked.

I'm not sure why this happens, maybe it's a problem of the Anaconda version.

Wow, good work finding that - and I sympathize, I have spent similar ages debugging this sort of junk. I'm glad you solved it!

I'm closing this as solved, but thanks again @isabelmontoyaa for tracking down the issue... "Okay, after losing (what felt like) years of my life" is every time I do anything with f2py. (but it's still better than running radex on the command line)
