Interesting. In the same set of updates, I installed OpenFOAM from their
Ubuntu deb package and it claims to ship with openmpi. I just downloaded
their Third-party source tar and unzipped it to see what version of openmpi
they are using, and it is 1.5.3. However, when I do man openmpi, or
ompi_info, I get the same version as before (1.4.3). How do I determine for
sure what is being included when I compile something using mpicc?
Thanks,
Brett.
