Hi,
While testing the build of xmds2 against cmake built HDF5 (1.14.6
currently in experimental) I noticed a couple if issues regarding HDF5
detection by the wscript tool.
Firstly, it extracts the HDF5 libpath from the full path of HDF5 static
library returned by 'h5cc -show -noshlib'. While it works currently,
it doesn't work with a cmake built HDF5 where the h5cc output comes
from pkg-config.
I propose to parse the -L link option from 'h5cc -show -shlib' instead
which works in both cases.
Secondly the HDF5 detection with MPI is not correct as is uses 'h5cc'
instead of 'h5pcc'.
Please see the attached patch proposal which should fix both issues. I've
tested it against autotools built HDF5 1.14.5 in unstable and cmake built
HDF5 1.14.6 in experimental.
Best,
_g.
