[CIG-SHORT] pylith installer problem with related to hdf5.h

[Ikuo Cho]

Dear PyLith developers;

I've been trying to install PyLith 1.6 by the installer
pylith-installer.1.6.0-1.
Following the instruction, I ran the configure script by typing the command as 

$HOME/src/pylith/pylith-installer-1.6.0-1/configure \
    --with-fortran=no \
    --disable-numpy \
    --disable-proj4 \
    --disable-netcdf \
    --with-petsc_options="--with-clanguage=C++ --with-mpi-dir=$pylithdir --with-mpi=1 --with-fc=gfortran --with-shared-libraries" \
    --with-make-threads=8 \
    --prefix=$HOME/pylith

after separately installing mpich2, python, netcdf, numpy, proj, and
petsc(-dev-pylith-1.6.0) .

Afetr all, the configuration for PyLith failed with the message:

...
checking hdf5.h usability... no
checking hdf5.h presence... yes
configure: WARNING: hdf5.h: present but cannot be compiled
configure: WARNING: hdf5.h:     check for missing prerequisite headers?
configure: WARNING: hdf5.h: see the Autoconf documentation
configure: WARNING: hdf5.h:     section "Present But Cannot Be Compiled"
configure: WARNING: hdf5.h: proceeding with the compiler's result

configure: WARNING:     ## ---------------------------------------- ##
checking for hdf5.h... no
configure: error: HDF5 header not found; try CPPFLAGS="-I<hdf5 include dir>"

I checked the existence of the file hdf5.h in the directory
$HOME/pylith/include. I don't know what was wrong.

The attached file was generated in the directory
build/pylith/pylith-build/config.log
