Ah yes, this will definitely be the cause. The tarball is very carefully constructed to untar the files in a very specific order (i.e., the files are inserted in the tarball in the reverse order of timestamps which Automake needs), but when you put the tarball contents into a VCS, that ordering is not preserved. Things go downhill from there. FWIW, we usually store the tarballs themselves in VCSs if we want to preserve specific third-party tarballs. It's a little gross (i.e., storing a big binary tarball in a VCS), but it works. Depends on your tolerance level for "ick" in a VCS. :-) -- Jeff Squyres jsquy...@cisco.com For corporate legal information go to: http://www.cisco.com/web/about/doing_business/legal/cri/ _______________________________________________ users mailing list users@lists.open-mpi.org https://rfd.newmexicoconsortium.org/mailman/listinfo/users
