[Coin-symphony] symphony on ubuntu misses glpk libraries

[Ted Ralphs]

The easiest way to hook GMPL to SYMPHONY is to do the following

cd SYMPHONY-5.1.7/ThirdParty/Glpk
./get.Glpk
cd ../..
./configure
make

This will automatically download and build the correct version of Glpk 
and configure it to hook into SYMPHONY. If you want to hook in an 
already-installed version of GLPK, you have to configure with

./configure --with-glpk-incdir=? --with-glpk-lib=? --with-gmpl

Did you configure with these options? I would recommend the first procedure.

Cheers,

Ted
