Package: beast-mcmc
Version: 1.10.4+dfsg-5
Severity: important
Control: block 1025424 by -1
Hello,
When launched on a system without OpenCL, beast-mcmc executable dies:
$ beast-mcmc -help
OpenCL error: CL_DEVICE_NOT_FOUND from file <GPUInterfaceOpenCL.cpp>,
line 122.
From a quick glance this seems to be happening due to beast-mcmc using
OpenCL version of libhmsbeagle1v5 (the line cited in the error message
is in libhmsbeagle source). However, beast-mcmc seems to support CLI
options to switch to libhmsbeagle1v5 CPU instance (see 'beagle_CPU' in
src/dr/app/beast/BeastMain.java). Maybe it is possible to make CPU mode
the default to avoid loading OpenCL-dependent libraries.
