                          I have just started to use Linux Mint for academic reasons and ran into an error as I was trying to install openmpi-2.0.1.
I am getting following error as I am trying to make check

        make: Leaving directory `/home/kuljeet/Downloads/openmpi-2.0.1/ompi/debuggers'
    make: Leaving directory `/home/kuljeet/Downloads/openmpi-2.0.1/ompi/debuggers'

    make: Nothing to be done for `check'.

      CC       pstatus_c2f.lo
    rm: cannot remove '.libs/pstatus_c2f.o': Permission denied
    Assembler messages:

    make: *** [check-recursive] Error 1
Earlier I got an error

    make: Entering directory `/home/thanhnt/openmpi-1.6/ompi/debuggers'
    CCLD predefined_gap_test
    libtool: link: cannot find the library ../../ompi/libmpi.la' or unhandled argument ../../ompi/libmpi.la'
    make: *** [predefined_gap_test] Error 1
    make: Leaving directory `/home/thanhnt/openmpi-1.6/ompi/debuggers'
    make: *** [check-am] Error 2
    make: Leaving directory `/home/thanhnt/openmpi-1.6/ompi/debuggers'
    make: *** [check-recursive] Error 1
    make: Leaving directory `/home/thanhnt/openmpi-1.6/ompi'
    make: *** [check-recursive] Error

Even after fixing the permission error above, I still got:

> libtool: error: cannot find the library '../../ompi/libmpi.la' or unhandled argument '../../ompi/libmpi.la'

> make: *** [predefined_gap_test] Error 1

> Error 2 make: Leaving directory /home/kuljeet/Downloads/openmpi-2.0.1/ompi/debuggers' make: *** [check-recursive] Error 1
