[OMPI packagers] Changing default location of Open MPI Fortran modulefiles

Open MPI packagers -- Do you have any opinion on where the Open MPI Fortran modulefiles are installed? Up to Open MPI v5.0.x, they have been installed in $libdir. It has been proposed that they be moved to $includdir in Open MPI 6.0.x (see https://github.com/open-mpi/ompi/pull/12649). Anyone u

All -- Unless someone has a strong reason for keeping support for GCC 4.4.7 (i.e., the default GCC compiler that shipped in RHEL 6), Open MPI is going to drop support for it in v5.0.0. The reason for this is that PRTE and PMIX no longer compile successfully with GCC 4.4.7 (and Open MPI gets a

[OMPI packagers] Open MPI: v5.0 delayed, v4.1 soon

Heads up for packagers: the v5.0.0 release has been delayed. It's taking longer than expected to get master stable -- which has ended up slotting v5.0.0 in to scheduling for later this year, and possibly even 2021. Instead, we're going to release v4.1.0 "soon". v4.1.0 will be branched from v4.
