Package: openmpi-bin
Version: 2.1.1-7

Hi!

Running mpirun on a minimal Debian installation results in this error
message:

    $ mpirun id
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------
    The value of the MCA parameter "plm_rsh_agent" was set to a path
    that could not be found:

      plm_rsh_agent: ssh : rsh

    Please either unset the parameter, or check that the path is correct
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------
    $ 

Installing the openssh-client packages fixes this:

    $ mpirun id
    uid=1000(alexander) gid=1000(alexander) 
groups=1000(alexander),27(sudo),50(staff)
    uid=1000(alexander) gid=1000(alexander) 
groups=1000(alexander),27(sudo),50(staff)
    $ 

Therefore, please add the openssh-client package to openmpi-bin's
dependencies so that things work out-of-the-box!

Best regards

Alexander Kurtz
