REFLO install errors regarding PySAM [UPDATED]

[zacharybinger]

Recently I tried creating a fresh install of REFLO while attempting to debug other errors i've been running into. After following the install directions from the documentation, many of the tests fail. It seems like the error originates during the import of PySAM

To recreate:

git clone https://github.com/watertap-org/watertap-reflo && cd watertap-reflo
conda create --yes --name watertap-reflo-dev python=3.10 && conda activate watertap-reflo-dev
pip install -r requirements-dev.txt

conda activate watertap-reflo-dev
pytest --pyargs watertap_contrib.reflo

Current error traceback:
ImportError while importing test module '/Users/zbinger/watertap-reflo/src/watertap_contrib/reflo/analysis/multiperiod/vagmd_batch/test/test_VAGMD_batch_flowsheet_multiperiod.py'. Hint: make sure your test modules/packages have valid Python names.

• Note that this is seems to be on macOS
• It also looks like @dguittet's username appears in the error message
• Since @dguittet is listed as one of the maintainers https://pypi.org/project/NREL-PySAM/, I'm wondering whether this might be a case of absolute paths "leaking" on the build machine used to generate the macOS wheels https://pypi.org/project/NREL-PySAM/#files

NOTE: The errors don't happen when the version of nrel-pysam is reverted back to 3.0.2 like before #107

Closed with #115
