Hi Bas, - thanks for bringing up the mumps formula. The problem is that this formula is for both the mpi and non-mpi (sequential) variant. Kwant only runs with the sequential version, but it is not possible to require such a specific variant in homebrew. Hence, if someone has already installed the mpi version, kwant would be linked against this one, and it would not work. This is why we made our own formula. But you can easily upgrade this one to Mumps 5 yourself, if you would like to check kwant-compatibility, I haven't had the time yet (some small things have been changed in mumps) - tinyarray: seems something went wrong with permissions, did you maybe use sudo at some point? - kwant 1.0.4, it seems you used the old 1.0.2 formula to update. Use my new 1.0.3 formula and it should work. Kwant 1.0.4 came out when I went on holiday, the official update must wait until I'm back ;) Best, Michael

Hi all,
Upon experimenting with Joe’s python3 version of kwant on OS X I found that mumps has a well maintained homebrew formula of its own in the homebrew/science tap: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-science/blob/master/mumps.rb
I think it might be useful to simplify the kwant installation on OS X.
Also the tinyarray and kwant version are outdated on https://github.com/michaelwimmer/homebrew-kwant
Updating tinyarray via pip doesn’t work:

Changing the kwant tarball to the 1.0.4 file on the brew formula also doesn’t work (https://github.com/basnijholt/homebrew-kwant/blob/master/kwant.rb):
