Package: libmpich1.0-dev Version: 1.2.5.3-5 Severity: important
When installing the package, it creates an incorrect alternatives symlink for libmpi++.so: /usr/lib/libmpi++.so -> /etc/alternatives/libmpi++.so /etc/alternatives/libmpi++.so -> /usr/lib/mpich/lib/shared/libpmpich.so This is incorrect. The correct symlink should be: /etc/alternatives/libmpi++.so -> /usr/lib/mpich/lib/shared/libpmpich++.so This problem only seems to be with this one symlink. The symlink for the static library is correct: /usr/lib/libmpi++.a -> /etc/alternatives/libmpi++.a /etc/alternatives/libmpi++.a -> /usr/lib/mpich/lib/libpmpich++.a Trying to compile a program with the incorrect link will result in numerous linker errors. --John Gruenenfelder -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Kernel: Linux 2.6.11 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages libmpich1.0-dev depends on: ii libmpich1.0 1.2.5.3-5 mpich runtime shared library -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
