investigate symengine library not found

[tjhei]

I have gotten reports of the form

~/aspect/aspect-release: error while loading shared libraries: libsymengine.so.0.7: cannot open shared object file: no such file or directory

We should investigate why that is the case.

I met the same problem, how to solve it?

I temporarily fixed this by adding the path where libsymengine.so.0.7 locates to LD_LIBRARY_PATH. A strange thing is when I ldd ./step1 | | grep symengine, it shows duplicated shared object dependencies, but one shows not found, the other one shows the right path.

I add libsymengine.so.0.7 path to LD_LIBRARY_PATH and run ldd ./step | grep symengine again, it only shows one shared object pointing to right .so path. It seems that symengine is not set correct rpath completely.

To avoid adding path to LD_LIBRARY_PATH every time, I add this step in modulefiles, like follows:

If installed correctly the symengine lib path should be listed in the deal.IIConfig.cmake under both
DEAL_II_LIBRARIES_DEBUG and DEAL_II_LIBRARIES_RELEASE
The cmake file is in the deal install dir under lib/cmake/deal.II

If one is listed did you check whether there is indeed a libsymengine.so.0.7 (should be a symlink)
