NOTE: libraries may be skipped if a library is not found OR
      if the library on your system is missing required features.

I have these libraries and ldconfig sees them.

#  grep -l UMFPACK /usr/lib/*
/usr/lib/libumfpack.so.1
/usr/lib/libumfpack.so.1.2
/usr/lib/libumfpack.so.3.1.0

# ldconfig -v | grep libumfpack
        libumfpack.so.3.1.0 -> libumfpack.so.3.1.0
        libumfpack.so.1 -> libumfpack.so.1.2

Is this a known  problem?
