I am having trouble installing pyipopt on ubuntu 12.04. During linking, I receive the error:
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lcoinhsl
Even though I know that this library is installed and the .so and .la files are available in /home/mostafa/MyBuilds/CoinIpopt/build/lib/
does anyone have a solution for this?
below is the complete return of running setup.py build:
