Its a problem with configure - and you default language of choice. Try
changing your lang to english - when building PETSc.

Perhaps the following might work.

export LANG en_US.UTF-8
./config/configure.py ...
make

Perhaps you mean .a - not .lib

If you use --with-shared=1 or --with-dynamic=1 - you get .so files aswell.

Due to the -PIC issue - perhaps .so files didn't get created..
