Hi Frank, Everyone The problem was solved. Thanks to your suggestion to use the VERBOSE=yes option. This option revealed that the HDF5 library path was not correctly specified in my .cfg file. There was an extra /lib bit on the path, instead of giving the path only up to the top-level library directory. That apparently confused the compiler, and hence the include directory could not be found.
Thank you for your assistance.
