I am trying to configure my openmpi with fortran, gfortran,

this is how I have configured my mpi.

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/openmpi/2.0.1 --enable-mpi-fortran --enable-mpi-cxx --enable-mpi-thread-multiple

I get this error at making stage.

/usr/local/gnu_gcc/lib/../lib64/libquadmath.la' is not a valid libtool archive

any solution ?

  • What are you trying to build? Have you tried a toy mpi problem? Commented Mar 23, 2017 at 1:19

    Where did you get gfortran? Don't you just have the static runtime libraries? What is your OS. Whicch versions of software do you have? Commented Mar 23, 2017 at 6:36
  • BTW are you sure you really need --enable-mpi-thread-multiple? Most people don't and it harms performance. Commented Mar 23, 2017 at 7:45
  • @VladimirF : I do need mpi thread multiple, OS is ubuntu 16.04, compiler gcc 4.9.4, openmpi 2.0.1 Commented Mar 23, 2017 at 13:27

I followed the instruction in this article1 to solve the problem,

  1. I removed all the *.la files in my gcc lib64 folder,

sudo rm -f *.la

  1. I ran in the configure folder

make distclean

  1. configure and install again

similar problem building/installing clamav. Exporting LDFLAGS and updating ld.conf didn't work for me. So I sym linked the location it was looking at (/usr/llib64) to the real location in case this helps anyone having similar issue.
