hypre_Error was changed from an integer to a struct in hypre. PETSc code was changed in main to work with that struct and not work if hypre_Error is an int. This means main cannot work with previous hypre versions (where hypre_Error is an int). Sure, instead of changing the minimum version one could potentially change PETSc's main version source code to work with both old and new hypre, but that would need to be done and has not been done. main is simply broken, it allows configure to succeed with an older version of hypre but PETSc main cannot compile with this, thus confusing developers and users. This does need to be fixed, one way or another.<br>

In hypre they recently changed hypre_Error from an integer to a struct which completely breaks compatibility with previous versions of hypre (and hence previous versions of PETSc). You must use the main git branch of PETSc with the version of hypre you installed.<br>

When you are looking for symbols in Windows shared libraries you have to prepend something to the function prototype to have it successfully found.
