[OMPI users] OpenMPI 3.0.0 Failing To Compile

[Justin Luitjens]

I'm trying to build OpenMPI on Ubuntu 16.04.3 and I'm getting an error.


Here is how I configure and build:
./configure --with-cuda=$CUDA_HOME --prefix=$MPI_HOME && make clean && make -j && make install


Here is the error I see:

make[2]: Entering directory '/tmpnfs/jluitjens/libs/src/openmpi-3.0.0/opal/mca/crs'

Any suggestions on what might be going on?

The only way that I can see that it would complain about --package-version not getting a value is if configure failed (and did therefore did not provide a value for @PACKAGE_VERSION@).

Can you send all the information listed here:
