Bug 393361 – sys-cluster/mpich2 1.4-rc2 patch

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description gentooer 2011-12-06 10:14:34 UTC]

Hi,

mpich2 version 1.4 has a well known error with MPI_TYPE_hvector, which gets obvious e.g. when compiling abinit 6.8 and higher with this library.

According to:
http://forum.abinit.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1206#p3883

just two files have to be patched. I adopted the patch for the actual rc2 version and now abinit compiles with mpich2 1.4_rc2. You might consider adding this patch and add the appropriate patch line to the ebuild (or use the attached one).

Thanks,

Wilhlem

Reproducible: Always

That version is in the main tree too.

Sorry for the long delay.  Can you try 1.4.1_p1 from the science overlay and tell me if things are working for you?  If so, I'll move the changes to the main tree.

Thanks.

Hi Justin,

The new version works for me. 

Thanks a lot.

Reopen - this isn't in the main tree yet as I ran into issues porting it over.
