[Pkg-octave-devel] Problem with HDF5 transition from version 1.8.6 => 1.8.8

[Jörg-Volker Peetz]

Hi,

using the packages "octave3.2", "octave3.2-headers", and "paraview", I've
encountered a problem trying to do this transition. With testing I'm using these
packages together with "libhdf5-openmpi-1.8.4" and "libhdf5-openmpi-dev".

Am I right, that it should also be possible after the transition to use the
openmpi-version of the hdf5 packages, i.e., "libhdf5-openmpi-dev" and
"libhdf5-openmpi-7" as they also provide "libhdf5-7"?

I can install the packages "libhdf5-openmpi-dev" and "libhdf5-openmpi-7" alone.
But when I try to install "paraview" and/or "octave3.2" with aptitude or apt-get
the package "libhdf5-7" is to be installed as a dependency but it conflicts with
"libhdf5-openmpi-7".

Any help would be appreceated.
