Dear Charl,

Could you please post the output of:
nest-config --prefix
/usr
nest-config --datadir
share/nest

I reinstalled the nest package and made sure there is no space in directory names.
cmake -Dwith-python=3 -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/home/abolfazl/prog/nest-install /home/abolfazl/prog/nest-source



regards,
Abolfazl
