https://community.intel.com/t5/Intel-oneAPI-Math-Kernel-Library/linking-to-libiomp5-so-with-GCC/m-p/817340#M4397 Yes, it's normal to add both the MKL library directory and the one where libiomp5 is located to the search path. If you use -fopenmp in the gcc, you must put the libiomp5 search path ahead of the libgomp path.

However, in the installation I use, certain support libraries (notably libiomp5.so) are not in the same location as the MKL shared libraries, so GCC doesn't find them.<BR /><BR />Can someone please confirm what the right way is to link with multi-threaded MKL libs on GNU/Linux (GCC). Specifically, I'm trying to figure out whether I need to carry around two distinct library search paths for MKL, or whether a single path (with different subdirs for support libs and MKL libs) would be enough.<BR /><BR />Thanks,<BR /> Stefan<BR /> Tue, 18 May 2010 01:05:16 GMT https://community.intel.com/t5/Intel-oneAPI-Math-Kernel-Library/linking-to-libiomp5-so-with-GCC/m-p/817339#M4396 stefan_seefeld 2010-05-18T01:05:16Z https://community.intel.com/t5/Intel-oneAPI-Math-Kernel-Library/linking-to-libiomp5-so-with-GCC/m-p/817340#M4397 Yes, it's normal to add both the MKL library directory and the one where libiomp5 is located to the search path.
