I'm having trouble installing the latest acme-unified package on NERSC (both Edison and Cori). I'm seeing the following error:

ERROR conda.core.link:_execute_actions(330): An error occurred while installing package 'defaults::gcc-4.8.5-7'.
LinkError: post-link script failed for package defaults::gcc-4.8.5-7
running your command again with `-v` will provide additional information
location of failed script: /project/projectdirs/acme/software/anaconda_envs/edison_acme_unified_2017.9.13/bin/.gcc-post-link.sh
==> script messages <==
<None>


Attempting to roll back.

My procedure was:

  • Made a new miniconda2 environment with Miniconda2-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh (I don't seem to be able to use the python/2.7-anaconda to create a new environment because I don't have permission to download new packages)
  • manually (and temporarily) added the bin directory from this new installation to my $PATH
  • Created a new anaconda environment specifically for acme-unified:
conda create -p /project/projectdirs/acme/software/anaconda_envs/cori_acme_unified_2017.9.13 python=2
  • activate the new environment:
source activate /project/projectdirs/acme/software/anaconda_envs/cori_acme_unified_2017.9.13
  • Install acme-unified (without x11):
conda install -c conda-forge -c uvcdat -c acme acme-unified mesalib

(This is where I see the error above)

@doutriaux1, any help you could provide would be very much appreciated. I also tried only installing uvcdat and mesalib (see below) and I get the same error:

> conda install -c conda-forge -c uvcdat -c acme uvcdat mesalib

For now, I'm going to try manually installing the packages (with pinned versions) needed by MPAS-Analysis to make sure we're okay on that side at least.

I think the problem was something to do with disk quota, though I'm still a bit baffled. Anyway, I think I'm getting a working install now. I'll re-open if I have further problems.

@xylar glad I could help 😜
