Installation issue

Can you verify that `brew list` shows `open-mpi` in the formulae?

Hi Tobias, open-mpi does appear in brew list

Well, something went wrong with the automatic installation of these packages. From the present information, it's unfortunately impossible to tell you what's wrong, but if you do it step by step yourself, you may either install it successfully, or you may find the problem.

I'd recommend doing the following:

1. Install the prerequisites manually (required and optional): see here https://biodynamo.github.io/docs/userguide/prerequisites/#required-packages-5

2. Clone biodynamo

cd <some-path-of-choice>

git clone https://github.com/BioDynaMo/biodynamo.git

3. Compile biodynamo

cd <some-path-of-choice>/biodynamo

mkdir build

cd build

cmake ..

make -j

4. Verify installation

source <some-path-of-choice>/biodynamo/build/bin/thisbdm.sh

cd <some-path-of-choice>/biodynamo/build

./bin/biodynamo-unit-tests

Ideally, everything goes smoothly. If you encounter any issues in 2.-4. please feel free to reach out. If you encounter problems with brew, i.e. in 1, we have limited influence on that.
