CCL: WARNING: ccl_cls.c: ccl_angular_cl_native(): GSL error: generic failure

When try to call pyccl.angular_cl using the attached code and a fairly vanilla n(z) on my laptop we get repeated printouts of this error message:

WARNING: ccl_cls.c: ccl_angular_cl_native(): GSL error: generic failure

Ok, I think we found the source of this problem, and it had to do with missing CLASS files, which triggered a chain of errors which got caught by the GSL warning mechanism instead of being transmitted as a CLASS error. We now should have fixed the CLASS issue, so this error should not happen in master anymore, however the GSL warning triggered by a CLASS error issue is not solved, so we should open a separate issue for this.
