Issue linking to MKL when compiling

[Fractally]

I am able to configure and generate mlpack using the cmake gui. ARMA_USE_WRAPPER is not defined, so I have to link to all dependencies manually. I am using MKL. CMake found three of the MKL libraries on its own:

mkl_core_LIBRARY = /opt/intel/mkl/lib/intel64/libmkl_core.so
mkl_intel_lp64_LIBRARY = /opt/intel/mkl/lib/intel64/libmkl_intel_lp64.so
mkl_intel_thread_LIBRARY = /opt/intel/mkl/lib/intel64/libmkl_intel_thread.so

It does not find the following on its own:

mkl_LIBARY
mkl_lapack_LIBRARY

I assumed the following:

mkl_LIBRARY = /opt/intel/mkl/lib/intel64/libmkl_rt.so
mkl_lapack_LIBRARY = /opt/intel/mkl/lib/intel64/libmkl_lapack95_lp64.a

When reaching around 30% of compiling a large list of undefined references appear in my terminal. These look like:

/opt/intel/mkl/lib/intel64/libmkl_intel_lp64.so: undefined reference to mkl_lapack_zlaqgb
/opt/intel/mkl/lib/intel64/libmkl_intel_lp64.so: undefined reference to mkl_lapack_zlaed8
/opt/intel/mkl/lib/intel64/libmkl_intel_lp64.so: undefined reference to mkl_iss_dcsrilut

Could someone please confirm whether my assumptions for the required libraries are correct. Any tips for a solution would also be great.

Thanks!

This issue was unrelated to mlpack. The MKL lapack libraries should be linked to with libmkl_gf_lp64.so and not libmkl_lapack95_lp64. Closing issue.

Are you sure mlpack is unrelated? Ideally, you shouldn't have to specify anything at all, and the configuration scripts should pick up the MKL dependency correctly entirely (especially given that you have them installed to /opt/intel/mkl, which the configuration scripts will search).
