To take care of the runtime errors you just need to do the following in a bash shell.
$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:/usr/local/lib
If you used "./configure --prefix=/some/other/prefix", then replace "/usr/local/lib"
with "/some/other/prefix/lib".
If you just add this to your .bashrc you should be fine. The other options, assuming
root access is to just add the lib directory to /etc/ld.so.conf and rerun ldconfig on
all machines. This will have the same effect, albeit for all users.

am able to successfully compile, but during execution

i tried compiling/linking w/ -static flag to overcome
the shared library error. however, linking w/ -static
gives me an error of "ld: cannot find -lmpi." i do
not have a libmpi.a file. i do have a libmpi.la file
but don't know how to link to it.
thank you,
