Dear All,
 After waiting for the release of the Windows installer for the latest Alps 2.2.b4 version without success, I have eventually resolved to to build Alps from source on a Linux (Ubuntu 15.04) Os.
However, I have some challenges that  I hope this platform can assit me with;
1.) I am installing the Alps 2.2.b4 version using cmake-gui. However, I kept getting the following error messages after what looked like a successful make process when I
i) 'make test':
The following tests FAILED:
    115 - expression (Failed)
Errors while running CTest
Makefile:137: recipe for target 'test' failed
make: *** [test] Error 8

and when I disregard the error from the 'make test' to

ii) 'make install':

CMake Error at lib/pyalps/cmake_install.cmake:490 (file):
  file INSTALL cannot find "/opt/alps/lib/pyalps/pyalea_c.so".
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  cmake_install.cmake:131 (include)

Makefile:66: recipe for target 'install' failed
make: *** [install] Error 1

Kindly advise on how to resolve these problems.

This is a strange error. Can you please tell us in which directory and how you build ALPS? Do you by chance built it in /opt/alps?

2.) While building Alps (i.e. while running make), I kept getting the warning; using deprecated Numpy API, disable it by"  "#defining NPY_NO_DEPRECATED_API NPY_1_7_API_VERSION" [-wcpp]. Do I just ignore the warning or is there some thing I should do?

Yes, just ignore it.
