[petsc-users] cannot find 'libz.a' when configuring

[Seungbum Koo]

Thank you. It fixed the problem. But it stopped with other message, saying
that

*******************************************************************************
         UNABLE to CONFIGURE with GIVEN OPTIONS    (see configure.log for
details):
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--with-hdf5-dir=/opt/hdf5-1.8.9 did not work
*******************************************************************************

I asked up to which version of HDF5 does PETSc support this morning because
of this problem, thinking if this is a compatibility reason or some sort
similar.

I tried to attach the configure.log file but there is 512kb limit to this
mailing list.

Any suggestion will help.

Thanks.

Seungbum
