But if you follow the step by step guide that command is mandatory, If it's not there, there is no gompi when building openblas: 1.- build gcc 2.- build mpi 3.- create gompi module (based on previous installation...) also, I think there's another mistake there. gompi-4-10 needs gcc 4.7 and the guide installs 4.6. So, the above command will install a new GCC (MPI too) and step 1 and 2 just create "old" version of the software. > > So, which is the Irresolvable dependencies encountered?

With the help of all of you, I think now I understand how it works. The problem was the guide, it's not up2date and that generates confusion. I've a valid EB installation and I'm installing more software. Now I'm in the process of test it with users. Again, many thanks to all of you for your help! > Regards, Cheers, Arnau
