[mvapich-discuss] MVAPICH2 1.5.1 shared library issue

[Eoin McHugh]

Hi,

I'm currently building MVAPICH2 1.5.1 on a SLES11 SP1 system with GCC 
4.3.4 and am experiencing a compile time issue when I attempt to build 
shared libraries for it.

My configure options are as follows:

    ./configure --prefix=/path/to/install --enable-f77 --enable-f90 --enable-cxx --enable-romio --enable-debuginfo --with-mpe --enable-sharedlibs=gcc

After the build only the libmpichcxx.so and libmpichf90.so shared libs 
are installed. Neither libfmpich.so nor libmpich.so are present.

I've taken an extract from the build information at the very end where it
attempts to link the shared libs and attached it.

I built a copy of MVAPICH 1.5 with the same configure options without any 
issue.

Regards,
