When you configured Meep, there should have been some output like: checking mpb.h usability... yes checking mpb.h presence... yes checking for mpb.h... yes checking for maxwell_target_operator1 in -lmpb... yes Maybe you installed them in the wrong order? You need to configure and install Meep after configuring and installing MPB, in order for Meep to detect that MPB is there.
