SuiteSparse configuration makes Trilinos fail to install

[murilo@…]

When installing Trilinos, which uses umfpack, I get the following error message:

Linking CXX shared library libamesos.dylib

I succeeded with the installation by adding the library /opt/local/lib/libSuiteSparse.dylib

to the variable TPL_UMFPACK_LIBRARIES:FILEPATH in the file CMakeCache.txt contained in the building diretory of Trilinos. The line in this file that worked was:

TPL_UMFPACK_LIBRARIES:FILEPATH=/opt/local/lib/libumfpack.a;/opt/local/lib/libamd.a;/opt/local/lib/libSuiteSparse.dylib

Thanks for the help

It sounds like the problem you're reporting is in Trilinos, not SuiteSparse. We don't seem to have a port for Trilinos in MacPorts yet. You should report the problem to the developers of Trilinos.
