[News] Eclipse on AMD Opteron

[Jan Snigula]

Hi all,

I am currently trying to install the pipeline on a AMD64 based testsystem,
and the eclipse test image_test.py fails:

astro-wise at opteron eclipse $ awe image_test.py
Generating testdata...
.qfits: error: cannot open file [IM.fits]
error: unrecognized file format for IM.fits: aborting

         \_/   **** fatal error in pid 7548
        '-0-'  **** segmentation fault or bus error
        --0--
        .-0-.

I know, that this test should fail, but the failure should be caught by
python, and not cause a segmentation fault. Has anyone already experienced
this problem before and knows a fix?

Thanks,

Greetings,

Jan
