Thank you for your reply. I’ve built MUMPS and its dependancies in my user space, since I’m on a cluster and don’t have root access. Doing the linking as suggested ends up with errors as libraries cannot be found:

How do I specify the full path for each library (e.g. /user/mumps/lib/mumps_common.a) in the build.conf file? I understand this can be specified for mumps as shown in documentation, but how about the other libraries (zmumps, pord, scotch, etc)?

Hi everyone,

So I’ve compiled MUMPS, scotch, metis from source, and now trying to like MUMPS in the build.conf file, but with no luck. I am doing this on a Linux cluster, so I don’t have root access, and to improve performance I built everything from source. From documentation, I understand the build.conf file should look like this:
[mumps]
libraries = zmumps mumps_common pord metis esmumps scotch scotcherr mpiseq gfortran
However I’m trying to link everything to static libraries. I tries using the full source to .a library files for each option, but I keep getting compile errors for every library, such as:

warning: no library file corresponding to ‘/user/MUMPS_5.0.1/lib/libzmumps.a’ found (skipping)
and compilation ends without mumps being linked to kwant.

Any help is appreciated.

Best regards,
Abdul
