5 months ago Hi Maxwell: Sorry for the delay responding. I was on vacation last week!
Two quick comments: Several of these issues are definitely happening because TEMPO is not being found. To check to make sure that it is installed and in your PATH correctly, do you get a good result for which tempo? And if so, can you run that executable and get the text help info from TEMPO?
As for the wisdom file, you definitely need to let it complete before you copy it to the appropriate library directory. I have added a sentence about that in the INSTALL.md file: "If you want to run makewisdom for slightly faster FFT calls, it is located in $PRESTO/build/src. Just run it from there, and then copy or move the resulting fftw_wisdom.txt file to $PRESTO/lib."
Let me know if this fixes things.

Greetings!
I am attempting to install Presto, following the instructions.
I have cloned the repo, and have ran:
meson compile -C build meson install -C buildAnd everything looks generally ok? I can run one of the test scripts, but then I get a message telling me that wisdom wasn't made correctly. I recall running `meson compile -C build' more then once and seeing it make the wisdom file, but I think I killed the terminal session before it was done.
Warning: Couldn't open '/home/afinemax/afinemax/khazad-dum/research/astron_2024/presto_and_tut/presto/lib/fftw_wisdom.txt' You should run 'makewisdom'. See $PRESTO/INSTALLAnother error says:
sh: 1: tempo: not found, which is odd because I think I installed tempo and added it to my `$PATH'.I haven't looked at the MESON logs but maybe something there might be of help? I have tried rerunning the MESON build commands but I just get a message saying that it is already built. I am not sure how to proceed.
the full message after running `test_presto_python.py' is here:
