[Pkg-openmpi-maintainers] Bug#452047: gromacs-openmpi: Package depends on lam4c2

Hi Nicholas,

I added a fix in trunk a while ago which seems to work and uses
alternatives. Nevertheless, when installing other MPI -dev packages, the
problem is still the same due to a bug in update-alternatives. I thought
of patching but it's not as easy as I thought in the beginning.

I'm not quite sure how to proceed though or what would be the correct
way to handle things here. I'm not sure if it's ok to raise the
serverity of the bugs against dpkg, so they get a little more attention.
I'm still trying to figure that out.

Just wanted to let you know that we're working on the issue, even if it
has remained quite silent lately.

Best regards
Manuel
