[Darshan-users] Hang on post-process

[Snyder, Shane]

Heh, I'm glad you were able to figure it out. I was just looking at the files generated in your temporary directory to see if possible to reverse engineer where the failure was occurring, but I'm glad you short circuited the need for that exercise :)

Sorry for the trouble and thanks for working through it with us! I don't believe I've seen the missing LaTeX packages result in a silent hang like that before, either, but it's nice to have another tip for users that might hit something similar while we wait for the new tools to be ready.

Ah - I think I figured it out. I went back to an old email (5/20/2020) when I was first installing Darshan and I found two packages I need to install:

texlive-latex-extra
libpod-latex-perl

One I installed these, it didn't hang!!  The resulting pdf looks like the one you sent me!

I'm not sure why it didn't yell about missing packages or binaries as it did before (see the 5/20/20 post)

Thanks for hanging in there with me - it's greatly appreciated!

Jeff

Nope, ubuntu:

DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=20.04
DISTRIB_CODENAME=focal
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS"
