Hi,

As the error message states, the reason for the failed configuration is
that CMake can't auto-detect MPI which is needed when you are not providing
the MPI compiler wrapper as compiler.

If you want to build with MPI you can either let CMake auto-detect MPI and
just compile with the C compiler or pass "CC=mpicc" to CMake and use the
MPI compiler "magic" instead of detection.

Unfortunately, the new installation instructions don't explain this detail
which was in fact briefly mentioned in the deprecated CMake instructions:

Cheers,
