conda gfortran on osx failed link issue

问题:

This issue is apparently well known and widely referenced. I'm running a python code using a conda installed environment on OSX. I'm getting

ImportError: dlopen(/Users/me/anaconda/lib/python2.7/site-packages/numpy/core/multiarray.so, 2): Library not loaded: @rpath/libgfortran.3.dylib

This happens regardless of whether I install gcc in the environment. All the suggested work arounds I found aren't applicable to my case. It's been hours of googling.

Can someone please provide relevant suggestion to get over this hump?

Your gfortran is too new for your version of Python. Your Python requires libgfortran version 3, but GCC 7 has libgfortran version 4. You will have to install GCC version 6 or older.

See a similar issue on Linux R v3.4.0-2 unable to find libgfortran.so.3 on Arch
