Ho Torquil,
I think it OK, to use mpich as the source package name for mpich version
3. But it is my personal point of view.
We just need to coordinate a transition (if it is necessary). Do you
have already done some packaging on mpich 3?
Yes, I have uploaded the mpich 3.0.3 sources to the upstream branch in
the git repository, as well as made some changes in debian/ to make it
work. I might have a few more small changes, though, in addition to
uploading the 3.0.4 upstream sources which are now available. E.g.
perhaps upping the Debian standards version and including an earlier NMU
upload in the changelog.
I have changed the source name to mpich in the git repository, and have
also added a few dummy transitional packages since the binary packages
will also change names a bit due to the name change and due to an
increase in the library soname.
Despite the fact that the existence of the transitional packages seems
to give a smooth upgrade on my system, I am of course not 100% sure that
the scheme I have deviced is optimal, since this is a bit new to me.
Best regards
Torquil Sørensen
