When running the http://www.ctcms.nist.gov/fipy/examples/diffusion/generated/examples.diffusion.circle.html tutorial i get the following error and output:

@KDra, do you know which version of gmsh that you're using? I'm using,

$ /home/wd15/anaconda/bin/gmsh --version
2.11.0

which seems to work.

i went through a few versions. i think it was the latest one. i did something (i don't know what) though and it started working.
