Hello! As result of our joint efforts (mostly of Kevin Buckley), I'm able to run SKaMPI benchmarks on NetBSD 5.99.22. You can find the resulting pkgsrc package at
http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/pkgsrc/parallel/openmpi/?only_with_tag=MAIN Patches are at: http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/pkgsrc/parallel/openmpi/patches/?only_with_tag=MAIN Of those: - patch-aa deals with RPATH, it was needed at some point and I want to revisit it to check if it is needed still; - patches patch-a[b-g] deal with deficiency in OpenMPI build system, which doesn't allow using our libltdl and insist on using non-functioning bundled one; - patch-ah implements configuration using getifaddrs, it is unclear why OpenMPI skips link local addresses preventing thus zeroconf usage, I have disabled it after some thought, it is unclear what to do for IPv6 configuration in similar case, I've left that part unchanged; - patches patch-a[ijk] adapt to packaging conventions. OpenMPI package will be in the next quarterly stable snapshot/branch 2009Q4. Compiler wrappers seem to work inside pkgsrc framework, I haven't tested them outside yet (though by Kevin words they should work outside pkgsrc). Intermediate packages worked on Dragonfly 2.5.1 and FreeBSD 6.3. -- HE CE3OH...
