Not really; but clearly your operating system can not find the shared
PETSc libraries. Let's go through some checks...
(i) Did you compile petsc as a *single library* (ie the default) on your
petsc installation? (PETSc >= 3.0.0 needs that configuration to work with
deal.II (or it is the other way around))
Check /usr/common/acts/PETSc/3.1/linux8c_g/lib/libpetsc.so exists. If not,
I guess PETSc is compiled in a way deal.II can not support.
(ii) Did you make *very* sure that you either EXPORT the petsc
installation to your operating system, or, put the location of the PETSc
library in ~/.bashrc? On some systems EXPORT seems to be not enough.
(Don't ask, put the EXPORT extension in your ~/.bashrc, source it, and get
on with life the way it is).
(iii) Please remember to configure deal.II with the options:
--with-petsc=/path/to/single_library_petsc
**and**
--with-petsc-arch=single_library_petsc_arch
Check through (i), (ii), and (iii), and let us know if things still do not
work for you. If you really have done all of those there may be a problem;
nevertheless I am sure we can fix it and get you up-and-running.
A clue on what a "NERSC" machine is would help me. *NIX? *BSD? :-)
Best,
Toby
