WSL2 installation problems

I have been running ngsolve with the ngsxfem addon on windows using WSL2. I recently tried to update my setup to the newest version of ubuntu+ngsolve+ngsxfem, but it doesn't work anymore. I can open netgen fine, but when I try to import ngsolve I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/home/----/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/ngsolve/__init__.py", line 30, in <module>
    ctypes.CDLL(_mkl_rt)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.10/ctypes/__init__.py", line 374, in __init__
    self._handle = _dlopen(self._name, mode)
OSError: /home/----/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/../../libmkl_rt.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Any idea how to fix this?

Dear JSR,

how (compile from source, via pip,..) did you install ngsolve and ngs-xfem?

Could you please search for any "libmkl_tr" in your /home/----/.local/lib directory?
(with something like "find /home/----/.local/lib -name "*libmkl_rt*")

Best,
MR

I installed ngsolve using pip (haven't tried to install ngsxfem yet, as ngsolve doesn't work).

When I tried to install ngsolve with apt-get, I got the following error:

libtbb2-dev : Conflicts: libtbb-dev but 2021.5.0-7ubuntu2 is to be installed
E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.

The search results returned:
/home/----/.local/lib/libmkl_rt.so.2

Oh, on my system I also have .so.2 instead of .so.1, but since I build from source, I could specify the mkl lib manually.
Don't know how to get the .so.1 mkl lib via pip

Any tips on how to do that? I've never built anything from source before, but if that's the only way to install it I guess I'll have to learn...

There are other options than installation from source for sure.
Unfortunately, I just don't have a lot of experience with them (did a pip install some months ago but did not run into this problem). Maybe someone else who knows what's going on, shows by here.

Which version of the mkl package do you have installed?
("pip list | grep mkl")
