[petsc-users] configure failed on MPI and Intel Compiler environment

[Takuya Sekikawa]

Dear Petsc developpers,

I tried to configure PETSc (ver 3.0)
on Linux (64bit), MPI-enabled, Intel Compiler (icc/icpc) environment,
but it failed.

./config/configure.py --with-mpi=1 --with-mpi-dir=/opt/home/sekikawa/bin-personal/mpich2 \
--with-x=0 --with-fc=0 --with-debugging=0 --with-blas-lapack-dir=${MKL_DIR}

                WARNING! Compiling PETSc with no debugging, this should
                      only be done for timing and production runs. All development should
                      be done when configured using --with-debugging=1

TESTING: checkLib from config.packages.BlasLapack(config/BuildSystem/config/packages/BlasL*********************************************************************************
         UNABLE to CONFIGURE with GIVEN OPTIONS    (see configure.log for details):
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You set a value for --with-blas-lapack-dir=<dir>, but /opt/intel/mkl/10.0.010/lib/em64t cannot be used
*********************************************************************************

MKL_DIR is set to intel mkl library.
without MPI (--with-mpi=0), this configure succeeded with no problem.
and MPICH2 is successfully compiled and running with Intel compiler.

I would very much like for any suggestion.
Thanks in advance.
