I followed the installation instructions via conda on Ubuntu 16.04.
When I start ipython and try to import chaste, I get an error:
37 import os, sys
38
---> 39 from _chaste_project_PyChaste_preload import *
40 import chaste.core
41
ImportError: libpetsc_real.so.3.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I looked at the output of the installation (conda install chaste), it seems like petsc version 3.7 gets installed (or rather petsc4py 3.7.0), not 3.6.
