Hi all,
I am rather new to Linux, dealii and spack so sorry if this is trivial, but i am trying to use dealii through spack on a intel computer with ubuntu 16.04 LTS. I downloaded and installed spack according to the tutorial. If i try to run, for example one of the dealii tutorial steps, i get the following error message during the "make" phase. (Cmake runs without errors.) phi@phi-desktop:~/Documents/step-9$ make [ 50%] Linking CXX executable step-9 /home/phi/spack/opt/spack/linux-ubuntu16-x86_64/gcc-5.4.0/binutils-2.27-d2rksiwp75nc4qxd6ejc5y76ywpx6x5h/bin/ld.gold: -plugin: unknown option /home/phi/spack/opt/spack/linux-ubuntu16-x86_64/gcc-5.4.0/binutils-2.27-d2rksiwp75nc4qxd6ejc5y76ywpx6x5h/bin/ld.gold: use the --help option for usage information collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status CMakeFiles/step-9.dir/build.make:255: recipe for target 'step-9' failed make[2]: *** [step-9] Error 1 CMakeFiles/Makefile2:195: recipe for target 'CMakeFiles/step-9.dir/all' failed make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/step-9.dir/all] Error 2 Makefile:83: recipe for target 'all' failed make: *** [all] Error 2 I already tried to update binutils with the command: spack install gcc@5.4.0~binutils but that didn't help. Thanks alot in advance for your time and help.
