#311: IPOPT not compiling HSL or Metis along with IPOPT source
-----------------------+------------------------

Priority:  normal      |  Component:  Ipopt
 Version:  3.12        |   Severity:  blocker
Keywords:              |
-----------------------+------------------------
 I am trying to get IPOPT installed in my system (Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS). I
 want to use IPOPT with MA57 provided with HSL package. I followed the
 instructions provided, got the source from hsl website and renamed the
 source folder such that it is located at
 ${IPOPTDIR}/ThirdParty/HSL/coinhsl. Similarly Metis is located at
 ${IPOPTDIR}/ThirdParty/Metis/metis-4.0 . Then I run `configure` command. I
 see these following lines in the many lines outputted

 {{{
 checking whether source of project ASL is available and should be
 compiled... no
 checking whether source of project Metis is available and should be
 compiled... yes, source in ThirdParty/Metis
 checking whether source of project Blas is available and should be
 compiled... no
 checking whether source of project Lapack is available and should be
 compiled... no
 checking whether source of project HSL is available and should be
 compiled... yes, source in ThirdParty/HSL
 checking whether source of project Mumps is available and should be
 compiled... no
 checking whether source of project Ipopt is available and should be
 compiled... yes, source in Ipopt
 }}}

 It can be seen the configure command is able to pick up the HSL and Metis
 sources. When I run make and then make run, tests fail with the following
 output

 {{{
 Exception message: Selected linear solver MA27 not available.
 Tried to obtain MA27 from shared library "libhsl.so", but the following
 error occured:
 libhsl.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
 }}}

 Any help is appreciated.
