Sherry,

This is with superlu-dist-7.1.1 [not master branch]

I don't really understand why this error comes up [as with shared libraries we should be able to link with -lsuperlu_dist - without having to link with libmpicxx.so.12

What do you get for:

ldd $PREFIX/lib/libstdc++.so


BTW: is configure.log modified to replace realpaths with $PREFIX $BUILD_PREFIX etc?

Can you try additional configure option LIBS=-lmpicxx and see if that works around this problem?
