Comment (by Roland Haas):

Hmm, could you provide the content of the files

• configs/sim/bindings/Configuration/Capabilities/make.OPENPMD_API.defn
• configs/sim/bindings/Configuration/Capabilities/make.CARPETX.defn

?

Those contain the values used by the build system. The first one to see what OpenPMD recorded and the second one to make sure CarpetX is actually using OpenPMD’s settings.

Also if you could do a:

./simfactory/bin/sim build -j1

which will fail and then another build run:

VERBOSE=yes ./simfactory/bin/sim build -j1 &>make.log

then attach the file make.log to this ticket (the “Attach file” option is hidden behind the “More v” button near the top right of the screen), that would help.
