Hi colleagues, I have spent several weeks to install firedrake, but still failed. I have totally uninstall anaconda to make sure "conda deactivate", but my installation still fails, even earlier in the initial steps, mainly related to "pip is configured with locations that require TLS/SSL, however the ssl module in Python is not available." My installation command is "python3 firedrake-install" , I am using LinuxMint17. The log file is attached as "firedrake-install.log" On the opposite side, if I use Anaconda ("conda activate"), I can go to the very last steps, but fails with " firedrake/supermeshimpl.c:1606:3: error: unknown type name ‘MPI_Message’ MPI_Message ob_mpi" The log file is attached as the second file "firedrake-install-Anaconda.log". I would appreicate it, if anyone could help me with this, thank you! Thank you!
