I setup Travis CI support for ARMCI-MPI but the available version in
whatever Ubuntu they use is buggy.  For example:
https://travis-ci.org/jeffhammond/armci-mpi/jobs/88880279.

I have not checked lately, but I believe that Nathan (and perhaps others)
have fixed most if not all of the bugs that were blocking ARMCI-MPI from
working.  Thus, I'd like to use a recent version of OpenMPI, but I do not
want to have to have Travis build it from source for every instance.

Can anyone suggest easy alternatives to building from source?  Are there
deb files online somewhere, perhaps provided by a third-party as for
MPICH?  Perhaps there is some obvious trick to get the latest OpenMPI via
apt-get.  However, since none of my machines run Ubuntu/Debian anymore, I
cannot easily test this, and I do not want to play guess-and-check via
repeated pushes to Github to fire up Travis builds.

If someone knows an easy way to get a late-model OpenMPI in Travis using a
method other than what I've indicated above, by all means suggest that.  I
am still new to Travis CI and would be happy to learn new things.

Thanks,

Jeff
