Hi all. This is a bug report, though minor. Briefly: when I configure openmpi with the option --program-suffix=-gcc-4.3 I get a bunch of symbolic links that point to non-existing files.
Here is then configure command: FC=gfortran-4.3 F77=gfortran-4.3 CC=gcc-4.3 ./configure --enable-mpi-f77 --enable-mpi-f90 --enable-static --disable-shared --prefix=/localhome/vic/programs --program-suffix=-gcc-4.3 Here is "ls -l" /localhome/vic/programs/bin lrwxrwxrwx 1 vic vic 12 Oct 16 11:19 mpic++ -> opal_wrapper lrwxrwxrwx 1 vic vic 12 Oct 16 11:19 mpicc -> opal_wrapper lrwxrwxrwx 1 vic vic 12 Oct 16 11:19 mpiCC -> opal_wrapper lrwxrwxrwx 1 vic vic 12 Oct 16 11:19 mpicxx -> opal_wrapper lrwxrwxrwx 1 vic vic 7 Oct 16 11:19 mpiexec -> orterun lrwxrwxrwx 1 vic vic 12 Oct 16 11:19 mpif77 -> opal_wrapper lrwxrwxrwx 1 vic vic 12 Oct 16 11:19 mpif90 -> opal_wrapper lrwxrwxrwx 1 vic vic 7 Oct 16 11:19 mpirun -> orterun -rwxr-xr-x 1 vic vic 2261137 Oct 16 11:19 ompi_info-gcc-4.3 -rwxr-xr-x 1 vic vic 212716 Oct 16 11:18 opal_wrapper-gcc-4.3 -rwxr-xr-x 1 vic vic 1112352 Oct 16 11:18 orted-gcc-4.3 -rwxr-xr-x 1 vic vic 1180508 Oct 16 11:18 orterun-gcc-4.3 opal_wrapper and orterun do not exist, so all symbolic links are broken. All symbolic links (except mpirun and mpiexec) should point to opal_wrapper-gcc-4.3 instead of just opal_wrapper, and mpirun and mpiexec should point to orterun-gcc-4.3 instead of just orterun. So basically, the custom program-prefix did not work for some files. OpenMPI version 1.2.4. I can provide more information if needed. Sincerely, Victor.
