Running instant-clean broke Instant

+2 votes

Hi, I somehow rendered my Instant unable to compile anything anymore.
The only thing I think I did was to run instant-clean, and now every time Instant is invoked [say, to run demo_auto_adaptive_poisson.py] it crashes with something like the following:

AssertionError: Failed to import module found in cache. Modulename: 'dolfin_compile_code_d4117239e2db4d3c197dfc52bb5eaeec5039ba8c';
Path: '/home/massimiliano/.cache/instant/xjbmjl3523d2';
ImportError:/home/massimiliano/.cache/instant/xjbmjl3523d2/dolfin_compile_code_d4117239e2db4d3c197dfc52bb5eaeec5039ba8c/_dolfin_compile_code_d4117239e2db4d3c197dfc52bb5eaeec5039ba8c.so: undefined symbol: _ZNK6dolfin8Variable3strB5cxx11Eb;

I am using the developer build.

Thanks for any help.
