在 Ubuntu 中编译 SuiteSparse，安装 CHOLMOD 时中断

Question

I've downloaded the .zip for SuiteSparse from the following GitHub . I'm trying to install/compile the C/C++ libraries in Ubuntu. I'm using the Windows Subsystem for Linux and installed Ubuntu from the Microsoft Store.

The SuiteSparse instructions say to cd to the SuiteSparse-5.5.0 directory and just type make . Makefile here . The readme suggests that I need make, g++, gcc, and cmake, so I've installed those using sudo apt install <package name> . Here's the error message I get from make 2>error :

I've turned off my antivirus, which had been preventing the makefile from writing in some folders. What might be going wrong? It seems like the makefile tries to install a bunch of libraries starting with CHOLMOD, and gets stalled while doing that. I've read some related questions . The first one doesn't seem to apply here since I didn't change PATH, and the second one suggests using Metis which I'm already doing.

Install LLAPACK and OpenBLAS development libraries. On Ubuntu the command is:

sudo apt install liblapack-dev  libopenblas-dev
