libopenmpi-devel problems


I am experiencing two problems with libopenmpi-devel-1.7.2-1:

1. The package contains an implementation of libevent2 that clashes with files in libevent-devel-2.0.21-1. For instance, both packages contain /usr/include/event2/event.h [1]. Linux distros tend to get round this clash by placing the openmpi include files in their own directory (e.g. Fedora uses /usr/include/openmpi-i386/event2/event.h [2]; Debian has /usr/lib/openmpi/include/openmpi/opal/event/event.h [3]).

2. The version of event.h in libopenmpi-devel includes "opal_rename.h", which is not provided in libopenmpi-devel (or any other Cygwin package for that matter). Hence, a programme that includes event.h will fail to compile.

Marco: If you agree with my analysis above, please could you repackage libopenmpi-devel to fix these issues.

Many thanks in advance,

Dave.
