Unhappy Trouble with Makefile


/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgm
I get this error message while trying to compile. What is that?
Have I neglected to install certain software?

Because of this error, I cannot find all the executable files.

Please help me!!!!

Uh, need more info.

distro?
what are you trying to compile?
what executable files?

-lgm means the program ld (the dynamic linker for libraries) is trying to find libgm and cannot.
This either means you do not have libgm installed or it is not in the default search path for libraries.

trying to compile a numerical model.

It is actually using the MYRINET GM... which our cluster doesn't have. Not the graphic math library I originally thought. Thanks!
