hi stefano, i stuffed the warning into google and it looks as if this originates from incorrect linking, e.g. by trying to link a static library as dynamic. without digging too deep into the technical details it looks as if this would happen when an old x86_64 compiler executable would be used on a too new installation or similarly related software that may mess with dynamic and static linkage of libraries (e.g. MPI). the error shows up on a large number of quite unrelated software packages. it is essentially a user error... and it has to be taken seriously since the affected functionality will not work. with large libraries like MKL it is impossible to predict whether some low level function is needed or not. if the calculation continues it would be worse than getting a straight crash as one cannot know whether there is some data corrupted or operations not performed and thus the resulting data dependable or not. cheers, axel.
