What's wrong with the Debian packages (if you really want LAM)? $ apt-cache show lam-runtime Package: lam-runtime Source: lam Version: 7.1.4-3.1 Installed-Size: 1363 Maintainer: Camm Maguire <c...@debian.org> Architecture: amd64 Replaces: lam, lam1-runtime, lam4-dev (<= 7.1.2-2) Depends: libc6 (>= 2.14), libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1), liblam4, libstdc++6 (>= 4.4.0), openssh-client | ssh-client | rsh-client, openssh-server | ssh-server | rsh-server Conflicts: lam, lam1-runtime, lam4-dev (<= 7.1.2-2) Description-en: LAM runtime environment for executing parallel programs LAM (Local Area Multicomputer) is an open source implementation of the Message Passing Interface (MPI) standard. . Some enhancements in LAM 6.3 are: o Added the MPI-2 C++ bindings package (chapter 10 from the MPI-2 standard) from the Laboratory for Scientific Computing at the University of Notre Dame. o Added ROMIO MPI I/O package (chapter 9 from the MPI-2 standard) from the Argonne National Laboratory. o Pseudo-tty support for remote IO (e.g., line buffered output). o Ability to pass environment variables through mpirun. o Ability to mpirun shell scripts/debuggers/etc. (that eventually run LAM/MPI programs). o Ability to execute non-MPI programs across the multicomputer. o Added configurable ability to zero-fill internal LAM buffers before they are used (for development tools such as Purify). o Greatly expanded error messages; provided for customizable local help files. o Expanded and updated documentation. o Various bug fixes and minor enhancements.
