docker build error /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lstdc++ fedora29 - c++

Question

I'm trying to build a docker container using the following Dockerfile:
FROM fedora:29
RUN dnf -y update && dnf install -y file gcc gcc-c++ git make wget which libtool python3-pip redhat-rpm-config python3-devel zlib-devel libstdc++ openmpi-devel
RUN cd /tmp && \
wget http://www.mpich.org/static/downloads/3.3/mpich-3.3.tar.gz && \
gzip -dc mpich-3.3.tar.gz | tar xf - && \
cd mpich-3.3 && \
./configure --disable-fortran --prefix=/usr/mpich-3.3 && \
make && \
make install
ENV PATH /usr/mpich-3.3/bin:${PATH}
ENV LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/mpich-3.3/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
RUN cd /usr && git clone https://github.com/Dowell-Lab/FStitch
RUN cd /usr/FStitch/src && make clean && make
RUN pip3 install FStitch-Bidir --user
ENV PATH /usr/FStitch/src:${PATH}
ENV PATH /root/.local/bin:${PATH}
RUN cd /usr && git clone https://github.com/Dowell-Lab/Tfit
RUN cd /usr/Tfit/src && make clean && make
ENV PATH /usr/Tfit/src:${PATH}
CMD /bin/bash
Where the projects I'm trying to clone are written in c++11 and the second of the two (Tfit) requires openmpi/mpich. The first program compiles successfully, but with the second, I'm getting the following error in the last step of the compiler:
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lstdc++
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [Makefile:20: NU_FIT] Error 1
I searched and found these two links:
cpp: usr/bin/ld: cannot find -l<nameOfTheLibrary>
usr/bin/ld: cannot find -l<nameOfTheLibrary>
But neither of these quite address the problem as I'm guessing I'm just missing a dependency/symlink to a library, but I'm unsure how to achieve this in the build. I can compile this successfully locally, but I have to module load mpi/openmpi-x86_64 to do so. My guess is that this is an openmpi issue when setting the LD_LIBRARY_PATH, but am unsure of how to resolve this in the Docker build.
The first few lines of the Makefile are as follows:
CXX = mpic++
CXXFLAGS = -static-libstdc++ -static-libgcc -Wno-unused-variable -Wno-non-virtual-dtor -std=c++11 -fopenmp -Wno-write-strings -Wno-literal-suffix -D_GLIBCXX_USE_CXX11_ABI=0 -g
EXEC = ${PWD}/Tfit
ARCH = getconf LONG_BIT
CPP_FLAGS_32 = -D32_BIT
CPP_FLAGS_64 = -D64_BIT
GCCVERSION = $(shell ${CXX} -dumpversion)
NU_FIT: main.o load.o split.o model.o across_segments.o template_matching.o \

Any help is appreciated!

Try add libstdc++-static in your list of dnf install. (https://github.com/numenta/nupic/issues/1901)
