Hello, when installing openmpi-1.6.4 (`cd /root/openmpi-1.6.4; ./configure --prefix=/usr/opt/openmpi-1.6.4/gcc-4.7.2/mxib --with-openib --with-mx=/opt/mx/1.2.16/3.2.0-4-amd64 --with-slurm; make; make install`) we found some references to non-existing paths in *.la files as in the following example:
`cat /usr/opt/openmpi-1.6.4/gcc-4.7.2/mxib/lib/libmpi.la` (this is the installed version of openmpi after the `make install` from above): ... dependency_libs=' -L/root/openmpi-1.6.4/opal/mca/hwloc/hwloc132/hwloc/src -ldl -lrt -lnsl -lutil -lm' ... Now applications using GNU libtool will stop here during their compilation with an error because this path (which is a subdirectory of the path were I compiled openmpi on a different system!) does not exist. (And even if it would exist this would lead to a "permission denied" error because /root is not readable ...and finally there are no libs in the src directory /root/openmpi-1.6.4/opal/mca/hwloc/hwloc132/hwloc/src). # are the *.la files necessary at all? (probably the answer is no: we tested this by deleting all *.la files in /usr/opt/openmpi-1.6.4 and it helped: application is compiling+running) # why are these references inside the *.la files? Thanks for hints- MfG/Sincerely, Stefan Friedel -- IWR * 523 * INF 368 * 69120 Heidelberg T +49 6221 548240 * F +49 6221 545224 stefan.frie...@iwr.uni-heidelberg.de
