The patch syncs the alternative code with was is done in the Debian package. Changelog: openmpi (1.3.2-3ubuntu1.1) karmic-proposed; urgency=low . * SRU to backport the alternatives fix from the Debian NMU 1.3.3-3.1 (also made by me, after coordination with the OpenMPI maintainer). See Debian bug #552429 for details. ** Attachment added: "openmpi+sru.debdiff" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/36733689/openmpi%2Bsru.debdiff ** Also affects: openmpi (Ubuntu Karmic) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- [MASTER] update-alternatives: error: alternative mpiexec can't be master: it is a slave of mpirun https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/480455 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs -- universe-bugs mailing list universe-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs
