I think this dependency is pulled in from libtool library, probably one of the ucx dependency. Usually the libtool package should contain the `-L…` for the library. But the breakage will happen if one installs the library to a different paths than the one specified during configure. These (libtool) magic are wonderful when it works, but so annoyingly difficult to address when it doesn’t 😊 -- Hui Zhou From: Sajid Ali via discuss <[email protected]> Reply-To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Date: Tuesday, March 17, 2020 at 10:50 AM To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Cc: "Syed, Sajid Ali" <[email protected]> Subject: [mpich-discuss] MPICH build errors, cannot find -levent(_pthreads) Hi MPICH-developers, I’m seeing a build error for mpich-3.3.2 on a cluster using gcc-9.3.0. I tried installing mpich using spack while linking against ucx and pmix installed by sysadmins at /usr/local. The error is as follows :
14144 /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -levent
14145 /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -levent_pthreads
14146 collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

I’m attaching all the spack logs (build-env, build-out and config-args). Let me know if there is any log file that I can send to help debug the issue. Thanks in advance for the help and hope everyone is staying safe from the virus! PS: I sent this email with config.log before but it didn't go through, hence I'm sending it again without it. Please feel free to delete/reject the first one. -- Sajid Ali | PhD Candidate Applied Physics Northwestern University s-sajid-ali.github.io<http://s-sajid-ali.github.io>
