[mpich-discuss] statically linked mpiexec

[Andy May]

Ken,

The '--disable-shared' flag removes some of the external references (to 
the Intel compiler in my case) but still leaves:

ldd ./bin/mpiexec
         linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007fff7a7b9000)
         libnsl.so.1 => /lib64/libnsl.so.1 (0x00007f3298e3f000)
         libpthread.so.0 => /lib64/libpthread.so.0 (0x00007f3298c21000)
         libpciaccess.so.0 => /usr/lib64/libpciaccess.so.0 
(0x00007f3298a17000)
         libxml2.so.2 => /usr/lib64/libxml2.so.2 (0x00007f32986ac000)
         libdl.so.2 => /lib64/libdl.so.2 (0x00007f32984a8000)
         libz.so.1 => /lib64/libz.so.1 (0x00007f3298292000)
         liblzma.so.5 => /usr/lib64/liblzma.so.5 (0x00007f329806c000)
         libm.so.6 => /lib64/libm.so.6 (0x00007f3297d69000)
         libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib64/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x00007f3297b52000)
         libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x00007f32977a3000)
         /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f3299057000)

whereas what I did gives:

ldd ./bin/mpiexec
         not a dynamic executable

Is there any option to ensure fully statically linked mpiexec via configure?

Thanks,

Andy
