Currently things specified with LIBS option remain untouched by configure..
so you could try LIBS="$(MKLROOT)/lib/intel64/libmkl_scalapack_lp64.a -Wl,--start-group \ $(MKLROOT)/lib/intel64/libmkl_intel_lp64.a \ $(MKLROOT)/lib/intel64/libmkl_sequential.a \ $(MKLROOT)/lib/intel64/libmkl_core.a \ $(MKLROOT)/lib/intel64/libmkl_blacs_intelmpi_lp64.a -Wl,--end-group \ -lpthread " --with-scalapack=1 Satish On Mon, 11 Apr 2011, Chen Shen wrote: > Hi all, > > Currently, there is an option to specify the blas/lapack library > files --with-scalapack-lib=[<list of .a files>].
