Fellow Maintainers,
Open MPI 1.3 is now in unstable, and it looks like that a rebuild is
somewhere between 'very strongly suggested' (e.g. by upstream) and 'required'
(as seen by Christophe who had some C++ apps fall over).
I personally think that a full release of libopenmpi12 and libopenmpi13 would
be massive overkill. I think we can in fact get by rebuilding packages.
As a starting point, I have put together a Wiki page at
http://wiki.debian.org/OpenMPI13Transition
that identifies the packages
gromacs-openmpi
illuminator-demo
libarpack2
libboost1.37-dbg
libboost-mpi1.37.0
libhdf5-openmpi-1.6.6-0
libhypre2.0.0
libhypre-2.4.0
libluminate7
libmesh0.6.2
libmesh0.6.2-pure
libmesh0.6.3
libopenmpi-dbg [ self-reference, done ]
libopenmpi-dev [ self-reference, done ]
libparmetis3.1
libpetsc2.3.3
libspooles2.2
openmpi-bin [ self-reference, done ]
paraview
parmetis-test
r-cran-rmpi

who I plan to contact with a heads-up and request for re-built, followed
(maybe two weeks later) by a wishlist bug report followed (maybe two weeks
later) by a binNMU.
Now is your chance to speak up. Am I being overly naive and simplisitic here
or do you think this can fly?
Comments most certainly welcome!
Cheers, Dirk
