Subject: mpi-default-dev: Please depend on openmpi (>= 1.10.2 -3 )

Date: Tue, 02 Feb 2016 14:10:09 +0000

Package: mpi-default-dev
Version: 1.0.2+nmu2
Severity: important

Please depend on openmpi >= 1.10.2-3, so that a versioned mpi-defaults-dev can be used.
The transition openmpi1.6 -> 1.10 breaks some packages (see e.g. #813490)
and the fix involves a versioned dep on openmpi, but the package depends on
mpi-default-dev. So a versioned dep. onmpi-default-dev is required.

umh, I can't really see how such a version restriction would be useful.
That bug you quote is fixed by a patch provided by you that works for
both openmpi 1.6 and 1.10, doesn't it?

You haven't replied, and clearly things work very well even without (as
they should), so I'm closing this as wontfix.
