pnetcdf and openmpi 2.0.2?

[Mark Dixon]

Hi,

I'm having a bit of trouble installing pnetcdf 1.8.1 against openmpi 2.0.2 
with the 17.0.1 intel compiler and was wondering if someone could help me, 
please?

After successfully building it with:

   MPIF77=`which mpif90` MPIF90=`which mpif90` ./configure --prefix="$prefix" --with-mpi=$MPI_HOME
   make

I'm trying to run tests, but "make check" fails here:

make[2]: Entering directory `/nobackup/parallel-netcdf-1.8.1/test/cdf_format'
./test_inq_format .

make[1]: Leaving directory `/nobackup/parallel-netcdf-1.8.1/test'
make: *** [check] Error 2


If I try a similiar build against intelmpi 2017.1.132 instead of openmpi, 
pnetcdf passes all tests.

Am I doing something dumb, please?

Cheers,

Mark
