Hello everyone,

I’m having a problem with make check in the installation of FreeFEM on Ubuntu 23.10. When I do the command make -j4 check, I get the following error:

```auto

I will try under ubuntu machine to see but my ubuntu see 20.04

Can you launch under gdb to see where is the error?

I tried the following command make check RUNTESTFLAGS=“–target\_board=native-gdbserver” FORCE\_PARALLEL=1, but I cannot see the error. Is there another command in linux to launch under gdb? I’m sorry, but I’m not so expert on the use of gdb.

</div>

ON the machine where you do the compilation.  
first try on a terminal , if the command gdb is install  
by enter gdb in the command line terminal.

after go in the source directory  
afetr do  
cd examples/3dSurf/

# to try without freefem++

../../src/FreeFem++ ./buildMeshSfromMesh3.edp -nw

# to try with the debugger

gdb ../../src/FreeFem++ ./buildMeshSfromMesh3.edp -nw  
run

It mean that this exemple work under gdb.

Thanks for the test , but I can say nothing, possible a mix with 2 installations.

remark, this 2 or 3 errors are not so important, I think your version works.
