Hi Vachan, The debug version of the library on my mac requires about 3.8 GB of memory to link: if you are patient and willing to use all your swap space then you should be able to compile the library. I recommend trying:
1) close all other applications on your machine (if possible, try to boot directly to the command line) 2) if you can, compile deal.II with the bare minimum number of dependencies that you might want to use. Every dependency you can skip will save some memory. 3) make sure you are only compiling with a single processor (i.e., make -j1) Best, David Wells ________________________________ From: dealii@googlegroups.com <dealii@googlegroups.com> on behalf of vachanpo...@gmail.com <vachanpotluri1...@gmail.com> Sent: Tuesday, May 4, 2021 2:45 AM To: deal.II User Group <dealii@googlegroups.com> Subject: [deal.II] make install fails with ld signal 9 Dear all, I am trying to do a new installation of dealii. `make install` exits while compiling libdeal_II.g.so with ld signal 9. I had a look at this question<https://groups.google.com/g/dealii/c/Yyd_I0ocXPo/m/8waaQBcDQxwJ> and noted that this might be due to RAM shortage, but my device has >2 gb RAM. The output of `free -h` is: total used free shared buff/cache available Mem: 3.7Gi 652Mi 2.4Gi 116Mi 733Mi 2.7Gi Swap: 2.0Gi 838Mi 1.2Gi What can I do to solve this issue? Are there any fixes or is higher RAM is required?
