I would like to to build OpenMPI from openmpi-1.2.8-1.src.rpm. I've

libraries.
Right -- OMPI builds shared libraries by default.
I think this is a problem because I've straced mpif90 and
discovered that ld invoked from gfortran only looks for libmpi_f90.a
in response to -lmpi_f90 inroduced by mpif90.
Really? That's odd -- our mpif90 simply links against -lmpi_f90, not
specifically .a or .so. You can run "mpif90 --showme" to see the
command that our wrapper *would* execute. You can also tweak the
flags that OMPI passes to the wrapper compilers; see this FAQ entry:
