Dear FreeFem community,

I have just installed FreeFem from the [Dependency management when building from source is not quite perfect. · Issue #318 · FreeFem/FreeFem-sources · GitHub](https://github.com/FreeFem/FreeFem-sources/issues/318) , as I had troubles following the official installation guide. I followed all teh instructions and they worked just fine.

To make sure that everything was correct, I ran some codes from the examples directory such as Heat.edp , condensor.edp and EqPoisson.edp . From all of them I received this error:  
Segmentation fault (core dumped)  
CodeAlloc : nb ptr 4134, size :533192 mpirank: 0  
Ok: Normal End

Thanks to all of you for the time.
