Bug#609056: elmer: ElmerSolver can't find shared library

[Vlad V. Voronenkov]

Package: elmer
Version: 5.5.0.svn.4716.dfsg-5
Severity: important

ElmerSolver fails to start.

vlad at vlad:~/Fem/2dchoc$ ElmerSolver case.sif
ElmerSolver: error while loading shared libraries: libmpi_f77.so.0: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory

vlad at vlad:~/Fem/2dchoc$ ElmerSolver
ElmerSolver: error while loading shared libraries: libmpi_f77.so.0: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory

The file  libmpi_f77.so.0 seemes to be a part of libopenmpi1.3 package:
vlad at vlad:~/Fem/2dchoc$ dpkg -L libopenmpi1.3 |grep  libmpi_f77
/usr/lib/openmpi/lib/libmpi_f77.so.0.0.1
/usr/lib/libmpi_f77.so.0
/usr/lib/libmpi_f77.so.0.0.0

the package  libopenmpi1.3 is installed, but file /usr/lib/libmpi_f77.so.0 is
absent. The only file with the similar name is
vlad at vlad:~/elmer/bin$ find /usr -name "libmpi_f77*"
/usr/lib/openmpi/lib/libmpi_f77.so.0.0.1

Creating a link fixes the problem:

vlad:/home/vlad/# ln /usr/lib/openmpi/lib/libmpi_f77.so.0.0.1
/usr/lib/libmpi_f77.so.0
