Description
Hi,
I did a port upgrade recently and dolfin was updated to version 1.4.
On trying to
import dolfin
it fails with
File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/dolfin/__init__.py", line 16, in <module>
import cpp
File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/dolfin/cpp/__init__.py", line 42, in <module>
exec("import %s" % module_name)
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: dynamic module does not define init function (initcommon)
I removed dolfin and reinstalled it from scratch. Same error again. I removed all the macports that I had installed and tried again. Same result.
I do not understand what is happening, and would appreciate any help.

You don't need to CC yourself if you're the ticket reporter, fyi. I've seen this before but can't remember exactly what caused it. I'll try to reproduce on my machine.

Ok, I can reproduce this. I wonder what changed. Looking into it now.

Looks like this is a bug with CMake 3.0.0: http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=14990

OK. Thanks. Should I then wait for a fix? Or would you suggest using a different version of cmake to build fenics?

It seems that CMake 3.0.1 will have the fix but that will be released in a few weeks. I guess I would suggest the CMake port include this patch from upstream and then dolfin would work again. css, would you be ok with including this patch temporarily until 3.0.1 is out?

Any update on this? My work is completely stalled.
Could you tell me if I could just use the patch on my machine and get dolfin working?

Yes, if you patch the files in cmake (from the bug report) and rebuild dolfin, then this will work. I'll push an update later today as well.
