Bug#853029: mpi-default-dev: update mpi defaults for m68k and sh4 to openmpi?

2017-01-28 Thread Drew Parsons
Package: mpi-default-dev
Version: 1.8
Severity: normal

This bug report follows on from #833425
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=833425

openmpi now builds on m68k and sh4.

For various reasons it could be convenient if the Debian default
mpi on these architectures could be updated from mpich to openmpi.

The specific reason that bothers me is that mpich does not provide
mpi-fort.pc, while openmpi does.  This prevents mumps from building on
m68k and sh4 (with blacs-mpi also affected). 

Cheers,
Drew

Yes, also as I reported in that bug report.

Such change really needs to be ACK by a porter, therefore I'm CCing the
68k and sh lists.

@Porters: Are you fine with changing the default MPI implementation in
sh4 and m68k from MPICH to OpenMPI?

Thanks Mattia.  J.P. Adrian Glaubitz also replied via the port lists,
and said he'll check to confirm the change won't break anything.
