openmpi-default @1.7.4 notes and install issues

[dstrubbe (David Strubbe)]

I see two problems in the notes for this port.

  +--- OpenMPI Usage note ----
  | The mpi[cc|cxx|f77|f90] weappers are installed as
  | mpi[cc|cxx|f77|f90]-mp. To make openmpi-default the default (i.e. the
  | version you get when you run 'mpicc/mpicxx'), please run:
  |
  | sudo port select --set mpi openmpi-mp-fortran
  +-------------------------

The word "wrappers" is misspelled. Also, the installed names are wrong, compared to

Port openmpi-default contains:
  /opt/local/bin/mpicc-openmpi-mp
  /opt/local/bin/mpicxx-openmpi-mp
  /opt/local/bin/mpiexec-openmpi-mp
  /opt/local/bin/mpif77-openmpi-mp
  /opt/local/bin/mpif90-openmpi-mp
  ...

Another issue is that mpirun should be installed to the bin directory too, like mpiexec, and as is done for mpich-default.

Yeah, this is just like #43197. Need to fix the typos in the note.

[seanfarley (Sean Farley)]

Fixed in r118766. Thanks for the report!

[dstrubbe (David Strubbe)]

Great, can we do this part too?

Nope. mpiexec is the standard. I already hate OpenMPI for their lack of good software practices and am not interested in catering to this.

[dstrubbe (David Strubbe)]

I don't understand. All you have to do is insert one more word into the post-destroot. And mpich-default is installing this file already.

Port mpich-default contains:
  /opt/local/bin/hydra_nameserver-mpich-mp
  /opt/local/bin/hydra_persist-mpich-mp
  /opt/local/bin/hydra_pmi_proxy-mpich-mp
  /opt/local/bin/mpic++-mpich-mp
  /opt/local/bin/mpicc-mpich-mp
  /opt/local/bin/mpichversion-mpich-mp
  /opt/local/bin/mpicxx-mpich-mp
  /opt/local/bin/mpiexec-mpich-mp
  /opt/local/bin/mpiexec.hydra-mpich-mp
  /opt/local/bin/mpif77-mpich-mp
  /opt/local/bin/mpif90-mpich-mp
  /opt/local/bin/mpirun-mpich-mp
  ...

Please don't reopen this ticket anymore.

[seanfarley (Sean Farley)]

I've had a change of heart. I'll add mpirun to openmpi either tonight or tomorrow.

[seanfarley (Sean Farley)]

Fixed in r118939. Thanks for your patience.

[dstrubbe (David Strubbe)]

Question about r118941: was it deliberate to remove mpiexec from files/openmpi-devel-llvm?

_< No. It was not. I'll push a fix soon.

[seanfarley (Sean Farley)]

Ok, should be fixed by r118984. Thanks again for the report!
