[petsc-users] Building PETSc with Intel mpi

[Satish Balay]

Is this MPI install functional and useable on this machine?

Perhaps you should heck with the sysadmin on this machine on the
correct way to use this MPI.

Googling on this error gives:

Perhaps you can try the additional conifgure option:

LDFLAGS=-static or LDFLAGS="-Wl,--hash-style=both"

If I have to specify the lib names (using --with-mpi-lib?), which libs should I specify? I saw a lot of libs under the directory, such as libmpi.a, libmpi_ipl64.a, libmpi_mt.a, etc.
