I've fallen behind on PR's and reviews on master, and missed that those actually went in. :-( -- Jeff Squyres jsquy...@cisco.com ___ ompi-packagers mailing list ompi-packagers@lists.open-mpi.org https://rfd.newmexicoconsortium.org/mailman/listinfo/ompi-packagers

It looks like we're going to miss this feature -- unfortunately, no one was able to devote enough time to finish it. :-( Sorry folks. The existing "external" mechanisms will all still work, of course, but our configure script won't "prefer" them, so to speak. So it's not a major deal for this feature to have missed v4.0.0, but it's still a bit of a bummer. -- Jeff Squyres jsquy...@cisco.com ___ ompi-packagers mailing list ompi-packagers@lists.open-mpi.org https://rfd.newmexicoconsortium.org/mailman/listinfo/ompi-packagers
