unsuccessful install on macos

[selipot]

Hello,

I am unable to run parcels on my mac (architecture x86_64) with macos 12.3. I run into compilation errors as soon as I tried any of the tutorials. I have tried the installation in two ways: installing parcels with conda or following the "Installation for developers". In both cases I get a version of the error message below. Looks like there is an issue with XCode? (otherwise I have been able to install parcels on the HPC of my university). Any suggestion on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated.

ld: unsupported tapi file type '!tapi-tbd' in YAML file '/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/usr/lib/libm.tbd' for architecture x86_64
clang-12: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

Hello Shane, This seems to be an issue with your compiler, please try and upgrade Xcode Command Line Tools: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/42538171/how-to-update-xcode-command-line-tools#53364628 Does that help?

I have XCode 13.3 installed, and installed the additional component from within XCode.

softwareupdate --all --install --force returns nothing and sudo xcode-select --install returns that "command line tools are already installed"

So I think XCode is up to date?

Have you tried export CC=gcc before invoking the python call?

[selipot]

Hi @erikvansebille
do you mean before python setup.py install within the cloned directory from github?

[selipot]

And that did it @erikvansebille ! Thank you so much!

No worries! Did you not see this comment in the note of step 5 at https://oceanparcels.org/#installing? Anyways, now it is also documented here for people looking for it in the discussion!

Ah! indeed, I missed that comment! Thanks again
