The pkg in question is here: http://www.stats.uwo.ca/faculty/yu/Rmpi/
The question is: has anyone on this list got OpenMPI working for
this pkg? Any suggestions?
thanks, Randy

Subject: R npRmpi
Been looking into the npRmpi problem
I can get a segfault executing
mpi.spawn.Rslaves()
The documentation .html files under npRmpi contains the following:
"mpi.spawn.Rslaves to spawn R slaves on selected hosts. This is
a LAM-MPI specific function."
lamhosts()
sh: lamnodes: command not found
The documentation for nearly all mpi.xxx.xxx calls send you to
www.lam-mpi.org for more information.
Looks for all the world this package depends on LAM-MPI which
is not installed on Quarry. I don't think pointing the build
at an OpenMPI install will help. The .c sources will compile
just fine but when R goes to use them it refers to LAM-MPI
dependent functions and behaves badly.
