--- Begin Message ---Package: dmtcp Version: 2.3.1-5 Severity: normal Tags: upstream According to the docs the --join option of dmtcp_checkpoint offers a way to join an existing coordinator session and properly fail if that is not possible. However that option seems broken: m@meiner /tmp % dmtcp_coordinator --port 0 --daemon dmtcp_coordinator (DMTCP) 2.3.1 License LGPLv3+: GNU LGPL version 3 or later <http://gnu.org/licenses/lgpl.html>.

This bugs leaves, for example, the Condor DMTCP shim script without a way to reliably verify that a particular coordinator is used. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (650, 'testing'), (600, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.16-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages dmtcp depends on: ii libc6 2.19-11 ii libgcc1 1:4.9.1-16 ii libstdc++6 4.9.1-16 dmtcp recommends no packages. dmtcp suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
