I followed the instruction in README and encountered the following error when I ran conda build rdkit. Let me know what kind of information is needed for investigation. Thanks in advance.

Environment:

• Ubuntu 14.04
• Use pyenv to install anaconda3 with conda 4.3.14

The following tests FAILED:
         42 - testMolWriter (SEGFAULT)
        111 - pythonTestDirML (Failed)

The conda builds use a release version of the RDKit. Python 3.6 support was added in github, but has not been released. The conda builds should support python3.6 when the 2017.03 release is done (should happen in the next month). In the meantime, if you switch to python 3.5, I would expect everything to work.

Thanks, I understand it. Should we close this issue by myself, or do you close it?

[greglandrum]

It's fine for you to close it, but since I'm here anyway I will do so.

Thank you
