[mpich-discuss] Compilation: MPICH3 and libxml2

[Junchao Zhang]

It seems the compilation was stuck at hwloc.  Try export these two env
variables and compile again.

HWLOC_LIBXML2_CFLAGS = -I<path to your xml2 headers, such as
/usr/include/libxml2>
HWLOC_LIBXML2_LIBS = -L<path to your xml2 library>   -lxml2

If it does not work, could you paste your $LD_LIBRARY_PATH?
