Hi Drew
So I've submitted an ITP for PRRTE and started to package it.
But more immediately openmpi 5.0.9 is "officially" released, and it
moves to PRRTE 3.0.12 (the latest).
This looks like a trivial bugfix release so I'll upload directly to
unstable soon.
Fantastic, thanks Alastair!
Drew

Hi Alastair
(and cc: Debian Science)
I raised our current pmix problem (Bug#1120424, #1120413)
upstream.
Ralph Castain upstream raises an interesting question,
https://github.com/openpmix/openpmix/issues/3717#issuecomment-3511548113
He suspect PRRTE might be at the heart of the problems we've got
running in buildd chroots with not internet interface (lo only).
His recommendation is to package PRRTE separately instead of using
the bundled source that comes with openmpi, just as we've started
doing
with PMIx.
Would that work for us? Hard to say if it would make MPI packaging
harder or simpler, but might make it easier to backport upstream
patches.
Cheers,
Drew
