Public bug reported: Binary package hint: libopenmpi-dev
When libopenmpi-.dev is installed, it creates the following dangling pointers in /etc/alternatives: slave libmpi.so: /usr/lib/openmpi/lib/libmpi.so.0 slave libmpi++.so: /usr/lib/openmpi/lib/libmpi_cxx.so.0 (clipped from "update-alternatives --display mpi" output) The *.so.0 files are non-existing. In fact, the .so.0 library is meant for the loader and should never be used for linking. These links must be corrected so they point to the correct .so targets. ** Affects: openmpi (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- [hardy] libopenmpi-dev creates dangling symlink in /etc/alternatives https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/207125 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
