Dear all,


I am encountering a strange problem when building Abinit 5.8.3 on my machine (Intel core 2 duo, Linux, gfortran).
Actually I can successfully build Abinit but without any plugin using the commands:
"./configure --disable-all-plugins" then "make".

Problem is that I need plugins, or at least the WANNIER90 plugin to work. So I use the following commands:
"./configure --disable-netcdf --disable-etsf-io  --disable-etsf-xc --disable-bigdf" to disable all of the plugins BUT NOT WANNIER90.
Then I run "make" and everything seems to works fine until the making of wannier90 phase is reached and then I get this weird message in my terminal window:
...

So I have downloaded another archive for WANNIER90 and copied it in the tarball folder, replacing the "wrong" one but it did not help at all.
Furthermore, I am experiencing the same problem with all of the plugins when I try to build Abinit with the different plugins.

Has anyone already encountered such problem?

And what could I do to make Abinit 5.8.3 work with Wannier90 plugin installed?

Thanks a lot upfront!
