Actually, BLACS and PCSDP compile fine here (w/ Open MPI-1.2.8)

If You want to link against the Open MPI's C++ Interface, You'd just need to pass mpif77 .... -L/home/openmpi_123/lib -lmpi_cxx The compiler-wrapper mpif77 actually includes the library-search path (-L): Use mpif77 -showme: gfortran -I/opt/openmpi-1.2.8/include -L/opt/openmpi-1.2.8/lib -lmpi_f77 ... > In "Bconfig.h", I have changed > > include "/home/openmpi_123/include/mpi.h" > > In OpenMPI 1.2.3, the lib directory does not include: "*.a" library. > only "*.la" library. These are the libtool '.la' files, which help when linking using libtool. The lib-library however should contain the shard-library files (libmpi.so* libmpi_cxx.so*), right? So You can link against the shared libraries.
