Re: mpich C++ translation (to the correct list)

[Russ Allbery <rra@stanford.edu>]

I didn't get as much done today as I was hoping, but some progress was
made.  I've filed new RC bugs for the transition against:

    blacs-mpi
    scalapack

and have followed up to Bug#323744 with a more complete patch and an
additional note that this rebuild is needed for the transition.

I have also filed new RC bugs against:

    fftw
    k6fftwgel
    k7fftwgel
    p4fftwgel

for not properly encoding shared library dependencies in their shared
libraries and recommending a change of the mpich Suggests.

I've filed a followup to Bug#325155 for warped, including a better patch
to fix the dependencies and adding an additional note questioning why the
package doesn't depend on the mpich shared library.

I have not filed bugs against:

    hypre
    illuminator
    parmetis

since Adam is currently working on them.  I'm assuming that Adam will file
the ftp.debian.org bug requesting the removal of illuminator for sparc;
Adam, let me know if that's not correct.

Still to be done:

 * Track down the hdf5 C++ transition.

 * Monitor the various packages that need new uploads and make sure that
   it actually happens.

 * Do another check with grep-dctrl to make sure that I've not missed
   anything.
