Re: [OMPI devel] Open MPI source RPM / specfile
A minor clarification: I am not the primary maintainer of the RPM specfile. Patches would be welcome from other community members -- especially those organizations who are using it. -- Jeff Squyres jsquy...@cisco.com From: devel on behalf of Zhang, Wei via devel Sent: Monday, April 4, 2022 4:51 PM To: Open MPI Developers Cc: Zhang, Wei Subject: Re: [OMPI devel] Open MPI source RPM / specfile Hi Jeff, The AWS EFA team also uses the RPM specfile to build openmpi RPM, and distribute the RPM.
