No problem, same here!
I do not have everything sorted out yet but the issues seem to arise
from broken assumptions on where MPI stuff may reside. This is trivial
to fix in some cases and harder in others.
As an example, apbs expects {include,lib} in the same directory, which
is not the case for mpich2 currently. Lucas, do you think we should
"fix" this by providing this layout in the MPI -dev packages
under /usr/lib/{openmpi,mpich2}/? It seems that apbs is not the only
package assuming this but I did not generate numbers on that. It might
be worth to have some consistency here nevertheless, IMHO.

We have used debian-science@l.d.o, as mentioned in an earlier mail. The
BTS URL is [1].
