[Pkg-scicomp-devel] Bug#459025: parmetis_3.1-8+b1(unstable/amd64/xenophanes): FTBFS: Doesn't search for mpi.h in right include path

[Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt]

Package: parmetis
Version: 3.1-8+b1
Severity: serious

Heya,

I tried rebuilding parmetis against the new mpich packages, so that the
whole heap of packages can migrate to testing. This failed:

| Automatic build of parmetis_3.1-8+b1 on xenophanes by sbuild/amd64 98-farm

I guess you will need to update the build scripts to look into
/usr/lib/openmpi/include.
