Hi Mikheil,
if you have several mpi libraries installed in your system you can
manually specify all the PATHs in the configure line.
Here is an example on how you would configure in SuSE 11.2 with openMPI:
./configure \
CC=/usr/lib64/mpi/gcc/openmpi/bin/mpicc \
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib64/mpi/gcc/openmpi/lib64 \
--with-mpicommand=/usr/lib64/mpi/gcc/openmpi/bin/mpiexec
The summary at the end of configure will then tell you that it
found a "generic" mpi version.
Greetings,
Torsten
PS: If you want to know what exactly the mpicc wrapper does, type "mpicc -show"
on command line.
