Ideally the openmpi package would allow to use POSIX IPC rather than XSI IPC. POSIX IPC doesn't require a server process. If there's a configure option to that effect, I'd use it. Otherwise, just add a README to tell the user about the dependency. > 2) Binary are not stripped as otherwise they will be not > functional. Reason to be determined.
