#43350 closed defect (fixed)

mpich and openmpi shouldn't have compilers as only build-time dependencies

Reported by: dstrubbe (David Strubbe) Owned by: seanfarley (Sean Farley)
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.2.1
Keywords: Cc: seanfarley (Sean Farley), eborisch (Eric A. Borisch)
Port: mpich-default, openmpi-default

Description

These ports list the compiler used (e.g. gcc48) as a build dependency. This doesn't seem sufficient: the compiler wrappers will not work if that port is uninstalled. I think it needs to be a runtime dependency.

For mpich-default @3.1_0+gcc48, I deactivated gcc48 and then: 

$ mpif90-mpich-mp test.f90
gfortran-mp-4.8: error trying to exec 'f951': execvp: No such file or directory

For openmpi-default @1.7.5_0+gcc45, I deactivated gcc45 and then: 

$ mpif90-openmpi-mp test.f90 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Open MPI wrapper compiler was unable to find the specified compiler
/opt/local/bin/gfortran-mp-4.5 in your PATH.

Note that this compiler was either specified at configure time or in
one of several possible environment variables.

Ah, good catch. I'm refactoring both openmpi and mpich portfiles to include mpirun so I'll fix this as well. Thanks for the report.
