[petsc-users] missing libpetsc.a

[0sabio00 at gmail.com]

I tried

make PETSC_DIR=$PWD PETSC_ARCH=arch-linux2-c-debug getlinklibs

and it printed out

-Wl, -rpath, /PETSC_DIR/PETSC_ARCH/lib -L//PETSC_DIR/PETSC_ARCH/lib -lpetsc
-lpthread -Wl -rpath, /PETSC_DIR/PETSC_ARCH/lib -lflapack -lfblas -lm
-L/usr/lib/gcc/i486-linux-gnu/4.4.5 -L/usr/lib/i486-linux-gru -lmpichf90
-lgfortran -lm -lm -ldl -lmpich -lopa -lmpl -lrt -lpthread -lgcc_s -ldl

I gor rid of all ',' and used the flag above and it had error with -Wl and
-rpath flags

gcc: unrecognized option -rpath
cclplus: error : unrecognized command line option "-Wl"

so i got rid of those two flags and compiled and I still get the same error
with DMGetMatrix not being declared.

I checked the location of all the libraries listed above. (with find -name
lib'blahblah'.*) at "/"

But There was no library for petsc "libpetsc.*" anywhere.

Am I missing something??

Thank you
