Hello, I'm currently about to prepare openmpi Debian packages, but I experience the following problems with it: openmpi compiles various shared libraries (libopal, libmpi, libmpi_cxx, liborte, etc.) that don't make much sense when being used without openmpi. Actually the orted utility and therefor liborte may be used without openmpi and the openmpi authors encourage users to do so, but there's no application at the moment that does this. I'm not sure how to handle the package(s) that will contain the openmpi libraries. Should I split it up in one package per shared library or is it a better way to put them all into a huge openmpi-libs package? Or maybe there are other better possibilities? Comments welcome.
