#39340: octave should not require a specific implementation of mpi -----------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: jeff.science@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.1.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: | -----------------------------+-------------------------------- Old description:

There is absolutely no reason for Octave to require OpenMPI instead of any implementation of MPI. MPI is a portable standard for a reason. Octave should work just fine with the mpich-devel package and that should satisfy the dependency.

#39340: octave should not require a specific implementation of mpi ----------------------------------+------------------------- Reporter: jeff.science@… | Owner: michaelld@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.1.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: octave octave-devel | ----------------------------------+------------------------- Comment (by jeff.science@…): Thanks. I had to install Fortran support in mpich-devel with "port install mpich-devel +gcc47" for the ARPACK build to succeed. I don't know that OpenMPI installs Fortran support by default either, but it seems that was user error on my part. I'm currently waiting for ATLAS to build but I guess the problem is resolved. I appreciate your help and quick feedback. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/39340#comment:3> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
