Err, I'm pretty sure the syntax for arch-specific build-deps uses brackets, not parentheses, i.e. openmpi-gcc [amd64] | libopenmpi-dev [!amd64]. Also, openmpi-gcc isn't installable in sid on any arch, including amd64. Regards, Vincent -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
