Public bug reported:

I'm using openmpi on Jaunty.

It looks as though libopenmpi-dev does not depend on libibverbs-dev, but it 
should.
When I try to link a program and libopenmpi-dev is installed, but 
libibverbs-dev is not, I get an error:

bin/bash ../../libtool --tag=CXX   --mode=link mpic++  -Wall  
-L/home/olenz/software/lib -o libesutil.la  bindings.lo TupleVector.lo Timer.lo 
                               
/bin/grep: /usr/lib/libibverbs.la: No such file or directory                    
       
/bin/sed: can't read /usr/lib/libibverbs.la: No such file or directory          
       
libtool: link: `/usr/lib/libibverbs.la' is not a valid libtool archive 

When I install libibverbs-dev, the error is gone. This looks to me as
though the dependencies of libopenmpi-dev should include libibverbs-dev.

However, as far as I understand, libibverbs is an infiniband library. In
principle, I do not see a reason why I do have to install a library for
a hardware that I do not have on my laptop.
