If you are updating a prior checkout of the OMPI trunk with r21568,
please be aware that there is an additional step required to make it
build. Due to a quirk of the build system, you will need to do:
rm ompi/tools/ompi_info/.deps/*
and then re-run autogen/configure in order to build.
The reason this is required is that the new ompi_info implementation
generates .o files of the same name as the prior C++ implementation.
As a result, the .deps files do not get updated - and therefore
insist on looking for the old .cc files.
Removing the .deps and re-running autogen/configure will resolve the
problem.
If you are doing a fresh checkout of the OMPI trunk, this will not
affect you.
Slightly less safe, but you can also do the rm command Ralph gave,
followed by a "make -k", which will regenerate just that makefile,
then update the .deps files, then build the sources. You probably
want to do a plain-old make after that to make sure nothing failed in
the build, as Make will report an error occurred during "make -k".
