'make' returns error on step-1 example

[Wakil Sarfaraz]

Hi all,

I am coming back to using dealii after quite a few years.

I installed it on MacOS BigSur Version: 11.4 (20F71) and attempted to execute step-1.

cmake . worked fine

make returned this error:

bash-3.2$ cmake .

Any help will be much appreciated.

Wakil,

This issue is resolved!

Dear Wakil,

I’m glad that you were able to solve this issue. It (the inclusion of this libdl.tbd library) is something that we have noticed, and are still actively trying to address to make the Mac package as robust as possible. May I ask, how did you solve the problem? It’s clear that you previously had the command line tools installed. Did you install Xcode after that, or something else?

Best,

Jean-Paul
