hi! Thanks for your report! There is a couple of issues here. First of all, the LOFAR tree has not been converted to casacore 3.0 yet, and since KERN-5 is based on casacore 3 we have to wait until @tammojan gets around to port the tree. Meanwhile, the LOFAR beam model has been extracted to a new independent library. Apparently, the ABI changed though, but we left the SO version the same which results in these kinds of errors.
What needs to happen is:
The workaround is to use KERN-4 until we have resolved this issue. Sorry for messing up your system but thanks again for reporting this!
Thank you for your answer. I should have thought in KERN-4. I will move to this PPA.
Updating LOFAR software as mentioned will probably fix the issue I am having too - the current master branch of Prefactor calls on an interpolation step in NDPPP which isn't in the KERN version of the software.
libdppp_interpolate.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Just mentioning it here in case anyone else is having the same issue.
Did you install the dppp-dev package?
Hi @gijzelaerr, I couldn't find that package. Is it in KERN-5, KERN-dev, or other? Thanks.
yep, you are right, that is not in KERN-5 nor in KERN-dev. There is a new dp3
package, but that doesn't contain the shared libs you need.
So unless somebody ports the lofar software to casacore 3 you are stuck using KERN-4.
good luck
Grand, thanks for looking into it. :+1:
an updated lofarbeam package has been uploaded, there is a seperate issue for porting the lofar softwre to casacore 3, so I think we can close this issue https://github.com/kernsuite/packaging/issues/181
Yesterday I updated the packages of kern-dev and the lofar python bindings are not working any more. I get this error:
I have seen that there are now two new packages called libelementresponse2 and libstationresponse2 that were not automatically installed (perhaps a dependency problem). In a clean virtual machine I get this error when trying to install lofar-dev:
The mismatch between the old (installed already in the system as they were not removed) and the new version of the libraries (expected by the LOFAR Python bindings) may be creating the problem.
I have tried to install manually libelementresponse2 and libstationresponse2 in the virtual machine but, when I try to install lofar-dev afterwards I get the following error:
I think that this may come from a version configuration mismatch (?) but I am not sure.
In any case, I would need this to be repaired because my pipeline depends on the LOFAR software and all the jobs are failing now. I had a look into kern-5 but could not find the LOFAR libraries.
In the meantime, is there any way to overcome this problem? Thanks.
