There are some other miscellaneous lam-mpi / mpich dependencies/conflicts/gotchas in Portage; you probably won't see them unless you're using ~x86 and trying to load the R packages that use them. When I get some free time I'll document everything in Bugzilla.

Meanwhile, speaking of R, they are at R-2.2.0 and counting -- 2.3 should be out in the spring. Portage appears to be stuck at R-2.1.1. Is there any reason there hasn't been an R version bump?

That's ironic, because the lam-mpi team has stopped developing lam-mpi
and now works on openmpi [1], along with a number of other groups. =)

As far as moving into the future for MPI in Gentoo goes, there's an
mpich2 ebuild in progress, and we'll probably start working on an
openmpi ebuild once they have a 1.0 release.

Thanks,
Donnie
