Stefano, accepting your experience I started preparing Makefile.config indicaring g77 for Fortran and gcc for C (I am at amd64 debian etch, parallel machine dual opteron) yesterday I went on obtaining successfully makefile.config and an invite to run make, although none of the mathem libraries had been found. The program specifically said "should I proceed without"? I said yes, but I did not run make. To day #apt-file update #apt-file search returns /usr/lib/libatlas.a /usr/lib/libblas.a which are just two of the mathematic files requested by ./configure Making clear that I have /usr/lib /usr/lib64-> lib [where /lib only contains 64bit libraries (I have purged from lib32 that base installation had provided)] looking into /usr/lib I only found libblas.so.3 -> libblas.so.3.0 libblas.so.3.0 not exacly what ap-file search had indicated. Is that correct? Moreover (although this may be too much to ask because it may be specific of the software), I should manually (the software is not yet automatic from this viewpoint) indicate in Makefile.config where the libs have to be searched nano examination of Makefile.config reveals empty MPI_INCLUDE_DIR = MPI_LIB_PATH = MPI_LIB = Does this make clear where the libs should be indicated?
