I have a user who prefers building rpm's from the srpm. That's okay, but for debugging via TotalView it creates a version with the openmpi .so files stripped and we can't gain control of the processes when launched via mpirun -tv. I've verified this with my own build of a 1.4.1 rpm which I then installed and noticed the same behavior that the user reports. I was hoping to give them some advice as to how to avoid the stripping, as it appears that the actual build of those libraries is done with -g and everything looks fine. But I can't figure out in the build (from the log file I created) just where that stripping takes place, or how to get around it if need be. The best guess I have is that it may be happening at the very end when an rpm-tmp file is executed, but that file has disappeared so I don't really know what it does. I thought it might be apparent in the spec file, but it's certainly not apparent to me! Any help or advice would be appreciated.

Cheers,
Peter Thompson
