Please make sure you list all package dependencies in your test cases before pushing a branch to next. Though Jonathan Shewchuk is a god of programming this does not mean that triangle is always installed on all computers at birth. You waste everybody's time by not handling these basics before pushing to next, plus you slow down the process of moving your branch to master.
Good advice, but the specific problem here is win32fe + intel compilers wants to mixup the executables between directories. Satish and I have had a thread on this.
It looks to me like a gmake bug, but we need verbose output and some debugging to be sure.
What do I need to reproduce it?
Good question. The original thread is here: http://lists.mcs.anl.gov/pipermail/petsc-dev/2017-February/020456.html Summary: - I have tests in src/vec/vec/utils/tagger/examples/tutorials/ex1.c - They are being run on the executable generated from src/dm/impls/plex/examples/tests/ex1.c - The problem only crops up on mswin-intel test builds: not mswin-gnu, or mswin-uni which uses "win32fe cl". - It happens consistently, so it doesn't appear to be a race condition
