Warnings when linking executables

[Alexander_C_1]

I recently updated the compilers from 2015 to 2017 on my Mac Pro (running El Capitan), and now whenever I compile anything (Fortran or C), during the linking step I get the following errors:

ld: warning: directory not found for option '-L/opt/intel/composer_xe_2015.2.132/compiler/lib'
ld: warning: directory not found for option '-L/opt/intel/composer_xe_2015.2.132/mkl/lib'
ld: warning: directory not found for option '-L/opt/intel/composer_xe_2015.3.187/ipp/../compiler/lib'
ld: warning: directory not found for option '-L/opt/intel/composer_xe_2015.3.187/ipp/lib'
ld: warning: directory not found for option '-L/opt/intel/composer_xe_2015.2.132/tbb/lib'

I'm guessing that what's happening is that even though I uninstalled the 2015 compiler, somehow the linker is still looking for it. It still compiles the code, so really the warning is more of an annoyance rather than a hindrance. However, I have no idea how to get rid of the old folders from the linker path? I've tried searching around but can't find anything useful.

And it does this whether or not I do source /opt/intel/compilers_and_libraries/mac/bin/compilervars.sh intel64

Thanks,

It is not clear what leads to inclusion of those 2015 paths. Did you uninstall all the different 2015 updates that are visible in the messages? Which particular 2017 release did you install?   What Xcode do you have installed?

[Alexander_C_1]

Yes, I ran the uninstall scripts in all of the old versions of the compiler prior to installing the new version. Specifically, I'm running Compose XE 2017, version 17.0.1. Xcode is version 8.1.

I reproduced this at least one way. Please check if you have the LIBRARY_PATH environment variable set that contains those paths and if so then remove any that are no longer needed and retry the compilation.

Thank you, Kevin! That appears to have done the trick.

Great, glad that was it.
