A little more clarification/detail. This problem is specific to the i386 build of gretl, the amd64 build is OK. What's going on is this: the gretl configure script checks for AVX capability on the build host and activates AVX if it's supported. It so happened that the host for the i386 build had AVX, but not the host for the amd64 build.
I'm the lead developer of gretl, and we've had some "WTF?" type reports from users on Ubuntu and Mint. We'd be very grateful if you could put out a 1.9.14-3 build for i386 that fixes this issue. As shown in the patch I attached, the fix is just a one-liner in the "rules" file. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1442286 Title: gretl 1.9.14-2 requires AVX To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gretl/+bug/1442286/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
