Hello,


I am trying to compile a code which compiles with OFoam 2006 (I'm speaking of precompiled packages for ubuntu 22.04) but not with newer versions. I bissected it, the problem appeared with 2012 and it remains with all subsequent versions.
I checked the release notes but I did not see anything in obvious relation with the linker error below.
Is anyone aware of why it occurs and how to fix this?
(I must say that I am not an experienced user of OFoam).


The file to be compiled is pimpleFoamYade.C from [1]. Version 2006:

source /usr/lib/openfoam/openfoam2006/etc/bashrc
./Allwmake
--> no issue

Then:

Version 2012

source /usr/lib/openfoam/openfoam2012/etc/bashrc
./Allclean

./Allwmake
...
...
...

Linker errors are always fun. I don't think that anything changed in the OpenFOAM runtime selection tables that would affect you (those changes came later for the 2106 and/or 2112 releases).


In any case, it could be helpful if you installed an openfoam2312-dev so that any errors would be closer to a fresh release. I'm not saying that this will solve your problem, or that someone else will solve it immediately, but at least makes it easier for others to reproduce the issue without having to go back to a version that is several years old.

Thank you for feedback.
I pasted the output of the first failing version since all higher versions give exactly the same linker error. You are right about raising attention on latest version though.


So here it is:
