Hi,

Mandriva support is OK if we keep the patch for pfilter.
The issue with MPICH was that I had rebuild the package without specifying: 
--defining "config_options FC=gfortran". That seems to be the solution for the 
problem. Maybe we should add it in the section that explains how to BUILD 
packages in the web site.
The package gcc-gfortran is not being selected and installed by yume anymore - 
I don't know if that represents a problem, tought.
Thanks,
Fernando
