[Pkg-openmpi-maintainers] Bug#535225: openmpi: Please fix installability of libopenmpi-dev on non-Linux archs.

[Cyril Brulebois]

Package: openmpi
Version: 1.3.2-3
Severity: important
Tags: patch
User: glibc-bsd-devel at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: kfreebsd

Hi,

thanks for the tweak in Build-Depends for libibverbs on non-Linux archs,
but that's not sufficient, there's the Depends line of libopenmpi-dev
that needs tweaking too. Please find attached a patch that implements
what would be needed.

It would be really great if you could fix that ASAP, so that we can give
boost a try, which we need for schroot and finally sbuild. Since we're
bootstrapping kfreebsd-*, having fast answers would really help. I can
take care of an NMU if you like.

(Having sbuild would help people handle their build environments and
build attempts very easily, that's why I tracked that down ASAP and
initially filed #535202.)

Oh, and I checked the .la files on kfreebsd-i386, there's no mention of
libibverbs there, which I first thought we might have to strip; it looks
like the build system does its job properly, which is a nice surprise.
:)

Thanks for your time.

Mraw,
KiBi.
