Hi

attached the (trivial) patch for that.

The problem is that
openmpi
doesn't just pull in a library, it installsopenmpi
as well, which is rather large.I'd turn the question around and say "why not just add the variant to your
${prefix}/etc/macports/variants.conf
file?I understand why you're asking, but then you need to ask "why not add python as a default variant"... and it keeps getting bigger...
