Ok, I've figured out where the MPI library is located. Now I run the following command for compiling stuff in Ubuntu 17.04 by:
<terminal> ./configure --enable-build-doc -with-mpi-lib=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/openmpi/lib </terminal> and the output correctly shows that MPI is supported now. The bootstrap MPI example also works fine.
