libnpsol
Yeah, that's a shortcoming in the ./configure script that shipped with 2.6.9.
Try replacing it with this one, https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OpenMx/OpenMx/master/configure
Does it work?

I could try but I don't know
I could try but I don't know how to do it. Why would they use a configure script that doesn't work?

configure
It's our configure script. We have a better version in the upcoming release. Do you need this urgently or can you wait a few weeks? We're planning to do a release soon.

CRAN?
You could try installing the package from CRAN, since the CRAN build doesn't include NPSOL.
