I know we were headed that way - it might still work when run against the 
current ORTE. I can check that and see. If so, then I guess it might be 
advisable to retain it.

All it means is that PRRTE users must be careful to have PRRTE before OMPI in 
their path values. Otherwise, they get the wrong “prun” and it fails. I suppose 
I could update the “prun” in OMPI to match the one in PRRTE, if that helps - 
there isn’t anything incompatible between ORTE and PRRTE. Would that make sense?


FWIW: Got a similar complaint from the OpenHPC folks - I gather they also have 
a “prun”’ in their distribution that they use as an abstraction over all the RM 
launchers. I’m less concerned about that one, though.
