Importing underscore modules (undefined symbol) #246
Description
When I attempt to import any function, I get the following type of error:
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'casacore.tables._tables'
EDIT: After recompiling with pip install . using github as source, I no longer have the error above, but I still have an import error with undefined symbol:
>>> from casacore.tables import table Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "/home/mjybarth/envs/resolve/lib/python3.8/site-packages/casacore/tables/__init__.py", line 60, in <module> from .msutil import * File "/home/mjybarth/envs/resolve/lib/python3.8/site-packages/casacore/tables/msutil.py", line 29, in <module> from casacore.tables.table import (table, taql, File "/home/mjybarth/envs/resolve/lib/python3.8/site-packages/casacore/tables/table.py", line 40, in <module> from ._tables import (Table, ImportError: /home/mjybarth/envs/resolve/lib/python3.8/site-packages/casacore/tables/_tables.cpython-38-x86_64-linux-gnu.so: undefined symbol: _ZN5boost6python6detail12gcc_demangleEPKc
EDIT 2: This occurs even if I use pip install python-casacore (ie with wheels). Note that I provide pip with the directories to Boost and casacore via :
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/cvmfs/soft.computecanada.ca/easybuild/software/2020/avx512/Compiler/intel2020/boost/1.80.0/lib:/home/mjybarth/casa/usr/local/lib
Please let me know how to resolve this issue!

From your description it is not clear if you try to install from source or not. The recommended way to install
python-casacoreis to simply runMake sure that you do not have
casacoreorpython-casacoreinstalled from your package manager, or from a local build. These are almost certain to conflict with the version thatpipwill install. Also, it is strongly recommended to installpython-casacorein a Python virtual environment.mjyb16 commentedon Sep 29, 2023
Hi, apologies for the unclear description. I have tried both ways of installing and neither worked (I uninstalled in between). I will try a fresh environment at some point, since the existing installation of casacore must have been conflicting with the install of python-casacore.
