Building ParMetis

This will work on 10.4.x and 10.5.x for PPC and Intel I expect. Though I have not tried it. This was done using OpenMPI

tar -xzvf ParMetis-3.1.tar.gz
cd ParMetis-3.1

Edit Makefile.in make sure CC and LD are set to mpicc. Set set INCDIR and LIBDIR to nothing.

make

This make will fail with ‘cant find malloc.h’, malloc.h is in /usr/include/sys/. Re-open Makefile.in and set INCDIR = -I/usr/include/sys/

make

For those with impatience

tar -xzvf ParMetis-3.1.tar.gz
cd ParMetis-3.1
CC = mpicc
LD = mpicc
INCDIR =
LIBDIR =
make
INCDIR = -I /usr/include/sys
make
