[QE-users] Compilation Error for QE 6.8 on MacOS 11.5

[Robert Fleming]

Greetings,

I’m attempting to compile QE 6.8 on MacOS 11.5 (Big Sur) using Homebrew open-MPI and gcc compilers, and I’ve run into compilation errors that I haven’t seen addressed in mail list archives for guidance.  Hardware is an 8-core Intel Core i9 @ 2.4 GHz.

The configure script completes successfully, but when I try make pw, I eventually get the following undefined symbol errors:

/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/ranlib: file: libupf.a(upf_const.o) has no symbols
/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/ranlib: file: libupf.a(upf_kinds.o) has no symbols

Is there any guidance on what might be causing this error, i.e., makefile issues vs. compiler issues?

Thanks for your time,
