I am getting the following error during the make stage of libmesh v1.7.1

In file included from ../libMesh/contrib/timpi/src/parallel/include/timpi/communicator.h:23:

I have configured libMesh using

../libMesh/configure --prefix=/Users/amneetb/Softwares/libMesh-Git/darwin-dbg --with-methods=dbg PETSC_DIR=/Users/amneetb/Softwares/PETSc-Gitlab/PETSc PETSC_ARCH=darwin-dbg CC=mpicc CXX=mpicxx FC=mpif90 F77=mpif90 --enable-exodus --enable-triangle --enable-petsc-required --disable-boost --disable-eigen --disable-hdf5 --disable-openmp --disable-perflog --disable-pthreads --disable-tbb --disable-timestamps --disable-strict-lgpl --disable-glibcxx-debugging --disable-vtk --with-thread-model=none

Any suggestions on fixing this?

contrib/timpi/src/algorithms/include/timpi/parallel_sync.h:180:15 ... auto type = build_standard_type(static_cast<nonconst_nonref_type*>(nullptr));

I just downloaded libmesh-1.7.1.tar.bz2 to see if I could reproduce the problem, and I couldn't ... but what's interesting is I can't even reproduce this line number. In my contrib/timpi/src/algorithms/include/timpi/parallel_sync.h line 180 is a comment, // This function implements the "NBX" algorithm from, and the only call to build_standard_type is line:char 383:15.

Is it possible you've somehow got a libMesh 1.7.1 but without the corresponding TIMPI 1.7.2? But I can't actually see how you could have something so much older in it's place - libMesh 1.7.0 also used TIMPI 1.7.2, and git says that a build_standard_type call hasn't been on line 180 since TIMPI 1.5.
