This isn't an error. It's just a warning from configure that some features of ode15i and ode15s will be disabled.
Do you need those features? If not, just build without SUNLINSOL_KLU.

Did you configure SUNDIALS to build with SUNLINSOL_KLU (cmake -DKLU_ENABLE=ON)?

Where did you install your self-compiled SUNDIALS? AFAICT, that header is part of SUNDIALS 5.1.0 (and is still in 5.6.1).
