not able to install with the option --netgen

Hi,

The flag --netgen worked for me before, but when I removed the firedrake and try to install the firedrake again it gives me the following error:

File "//firedrake-install", line 2131, in
build_and_install_netgen()
File "//firedrake-install", line 1428, in build_and_install_netgen
run_pip(["install", "netgen-mesher==6.2.2304.post142.dev0"])
File "//firedrake-install", line 978, in run_pip
check_call(pip + args)

subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command '['/firedrake/bin/python', '-m', 'pip', 'install', 'netgen-mesher==6.2.2304.post142.dev0']' returned non-zero exit status 1.

Attached is the install log. Thanks for your help.

I just checked the log which says that
2023-12-24 01:53:56,448 INFO Installing NGSolve/Netgen.
2023-12-24 01:53:56,448 DEBUG Running command '/firedrake/bin/python -m pip install netgen-mesher==6.2.2304.post142.dev0'

So, I replace netgen-mesher==6.2.2304.post142.dev0 by netgen-mesher==6.2.2307 in the install script. And it works now

@UZerbinati do we need to fix this in firedrake-install?

[UZerbinati]

Yes we do, I've been testing with netgen-mesher==6.2.2305 at the moment and everything seems to be ok.
But if everything works with netgen-mesher==6.2.2307 I don't see why using an older version :)
