Hello Konstantin,
I've sucessfully compiled the toolkit on an Arch Linux machine with the option files that I'm sending as an attachment.
The dependencies are all listed in the option file inside, and are all available and up-to-date in the official repositories.
There is one small caveat: one of the updates of HDF5 in the Arch repositories somehow broke the Toolkit compilation, now it fails to find HDF5.
I wanted to look into it and figure out whats going on, but I decided to be lazy instead and just downgrade HDF5.
Version 1.14.5-1 in repositories works.
Since I don't have any other package depending on HDF5, this works fine for me.
If you figure out what happened, please do let me know.
Also, when I started using the toolkit, I was getting random core dumps on Arch and Arch based distros.
This hasn't happened to me in many months now, so it was probably something to do with a specific version of one of the libraries.
Either way, if that does happen to you, here's the bug report that I made: https://bitbucket.org/einsteintoolkit/tickets/issues/2774/openmp-heisenbug-w...
Best,
José Ferreira

Hi,
I am currently trying to install the ETK to my personal laptop for a project. I am using an ArchLinux system with linux 6.14.9. The processor in my laptop is an AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 8840U. While trying to compile the toolkit I get the error
/usr/include/c++/15.1.1/cstdlib:83:15: schwerwiegender Fehler: stdlib.h: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden 83 | #include_next <stdlib.h>
which then causes the compilation to fail. The only version of the bug I found, which I could reproduce locally, was using "gcc -isystem /usr/include" as described in an bug report (https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=70129 https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=70129) from 2016 for gcc. I tried compiling a small Hello World script written in C++ with "gcc", "gcc -I" and gcc -isystem" and the last option gave me the same error, the rest worked just fine. But I'm not sure if that is the real reason as other OptionFiles indicate, that gcc can and has been successfully used to compile the ETK and I have not seen the "-isystem" glag invoked anywhere, so I'm guessing the the error is on my side, although I have no clue where exactly. I have attached the make.log file and my OptionsList, as I had to explicitly give the ETK the HDF folders and then decided to do it for most external libraries I saw in the list and have locally on my system. I appreciate any ideas or advice on fixing this problem and thank you in advance for taking the time to look over my problem.
With best regards
