Even that is not working for me :-(
$ mpicc test.c -o test
$ ./test
Hello, world, I am 0 of 1
$ orterun -np 1 ./test
$
It sounds like this is not a problem with the Debian package, nor with
OpenMPI, but something peculiar to my chroot environment. Output is
only needed for testing purposes in my case, so it's not urgent, but it
would be helpful to track this down at some point. If that means
waiting for the next OpenMPI (pre-)release, that's fine with me.
Thanks again,
