py27-h5py 2.8.0_2 fails to build

[dstrubbe (David Strubbe)]

I am trying to upgrade from py27-h5py @2.8.0_1, without any variants in new or old, and get this error in building:

I have various MPI ports installed, although this block suggests it is not finding them in configure. I have hdf5 @1.10.4_0+cxx+fortran+gfortran+hl+mpich installed.

I'm not able to reproduce. What MPI flavors do you have installed and what variants do you have selected on hdf5, py27-mpi4py, and py27-h5py.

[dstrubbe (David Strubbe)]

hdf5 @1.10.4_0+cxx+fortran+gfortran+hl+mpich; py27-mpi4py is not installed; py27-h5py no variants.

openmpi-default @3.0.0_0+gcc7
openmpi-gcc6 @3.0.0_0+fortran
openmpi-gcc7 @3.0.0_0+fortran
mpich-default @3.2.1_5+gcc8
mpich-gcc6 @3.2.1_6+fortran
mpich-gcc7 @3.2.1_6+fortran
mpich-gcc8 @3.2.1_6+fortran

Is this still broken?

py27-h5py no longer exists, but I tried "sudo port install py38-h5py" and that worked fine. Then I tried "sudo port install py38-h5py +mpich" and got:

It succeeded but clearly there is a check or dependency that isn't being handled correctly.
