Hello, as openmpi currently does not build on hydra, a lengthy list of failed dependent packages appears: http://hydra.gnu.org/eval/75135#tabs-now-fail This contains packages such as a2ps, alsa-utils, automoc4, gnunet, imagemagick, qt etc., which a priori have no relationship with mpi.
I did not follow all dependency chains, but one of the culprits is fftw, as a dependency of pulseaudio. Would it not make sense to create a separate package that has openmpi as an additional input? Then I think it would be good to analyse the complete dependency chains starting with openmpi. Andreas
