Package: openmpi-checkpoint Version: 1.4.2-4 Severity: normal There is two problems in the openmpi-checkpoint package (problem reported in debian-stable):
1. Two executables were replaced by symlinks that create a circular reference: /usr/bin/orte-checkpoint <-> /usr/bin/ompi-checkpoint /usr/bin/orte-restart <-> /usr/bin/ompi-restart Those two orte-* files should be binary executables from the build (the ompi-* symlinks are fines). 2. Two necessary executables were not listed in the package files : /usr/bin/opal-checkpoint /usr/bin/opal-restart A few fixes in the package files fixed the problem, I have attached a diff file of the necessary changes. Could it be applied to the official package? Regards, -- Matthieu Volat <matthieu.vo...@inria.fr> INRIA, project team MESCAL <mescal.imag.fr>
