Dear community,

I am trying to install Valgrind for use with Open MPI. However, my installation is missing the library file */lib/valgrind/**libmpiwrap-<platform>.so*. I did configure release 3.22.0 with the /--with-mpicc/ flag and successefully ran make and make install.

I am running Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS with Open MPI 5.0.2. I can't seem to find the problem; the config.log returns:

configure:18197: checking for mpicc
configure:18221: found /usr/local/bin/mpicc
configure:18234: result: /usr/local/bin/mpicc
configure:18319: checking primary target for usable MPI2-compliant C compiler and mpi.h configure:18347: yes -o conftest -g -O -fno-omit-frame-pointer -Wall -fpic -m64  -fpic -shared -m64 conftest.c  >&5
yes: invalid option -- 'o'
Try 'yes --help' for more information.
configure:18347: $? = 1
configure: failed program was:
| /* confdefs.h */

I would really appreciate the help.

Kind regards

Hi Andris,

the problem is that configure was told that the name of the MPI2-compliant C compiler is "yes". As you didn't explicit specify this (at least not intended to), this is (also) a problem of the configure script.

It does hint what happens in your case to the user, as configure --help says
  --with-mpicc=           Specify name of MPI2-ised C compiler


You did specify --with-mpicc - per default that is identical to --with-mpicc=yes (--without-mpicc would be resolved ti --with-mpicc=no), and that's not checked in the configure script and used "as is".


So to work around that that:

a) either drop the option completely (configure should then find it on
   its own if it is named mpicc and somwehere in
       $PATH:/usr/lib/openmpi/bin:/usr/lib64/openmpi/bin
b) specify it explicit using its full path passed to --with-mpicc (sadly
   I couldn't find how that is called/to be installed in your
   environment).


To fix this, the configure script should:
* explicit check for both "yes" and "no" and raise a clear error
* possibly add more compiler names / paths to its list

How is the "MPI2-compliant C compiler" named on your system, and where is it installed to?

Kind regards,
Simon
