[CIG-MC] Aspect installation error

[John Naliboff]

Hi all,

Max - did you get all of the packages to install successfully with Candi on your mac? I tried to install everything from scratch a ways back (> 1 year?) on my mac with no success. Fantastic if candi is working well on the more recent Mac OS.

Noah - the quickest way to install ASPECT on your mac is via the deal.II mac “app” package that comes with all of ASPECT’s dependencies pre-built. For detailed instructions, see: https://github.com/dealii/dealii/wiki/MacOSX

If you run into additional installation trouble, I recommend emailing the ASPECT developer email list: aspect-devel at geodynamics.org <mailto:aspect-devel at geodynamics.org>

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
John

In particular, there is now candi. I was able to install trilinos, p4est, deal.ii and aspect very easily on my mac. Hope this helps.
