libcr0 will behave sanely if the kernel modules are not available. The extent of this is to return appropriate error codes from API calls though, rather than actually being useful, hence the recommends there.
I originally took the view that most MPI "users" were probably sysadmins setting up clusters etc. and therefore recommends on MPI made sense because this is exactly the kind of thing you want to push out to cluster nodes. I've prepared a new upload for Debian, which adds support for kernels up to an including 2.6.34. I plan to upload it tonight once upstream ACK some of the changes I made. This new release also dropped references to blcr-modules (the package originally targeted m-a, not dkms). -- package blcr-dkms does not support 2.6.33 or more recent kernels https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/555729 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
