Expected behavior

correct build so I can run tests part of my Pull Request before submitting...

Hi @cregouby,

Thanks for reporting!

I believe this caused by a mismatch between LibLantern's expected LibTorch and the one installed in the build-lantern directory. What happens if you erase the build-lantern/libtorch and try to rebuild? Do you still get the same errors?

[cregouby]

Hello @dfalbel Thanks a lot for the hint, as yes I had unexpected file in the "lantern/build" folder. Plus I was using the RStudio "Install" button, that, in the case of {torch} is the wrong way to proceed. Now, with a cleaned install folder plus using the proper procedure documented in CONTRIBUTION.md, build is fine !
