Description Jonas L. B. 2020-05-24 21:42:02 UTC

Description of problem:

Installing scalapack-openmpi-devel provides scalapack.pc in /usr/lib64/openmpi/lib/pkgconfig. In this file, it is specified that scalapack requires 'mpi', but openmpi goes under the name 'ompi' (there's an ompi.pc file). 
This means that when pkg-config is queried eg. for libs or version (with PKG_CONFIG_PATH set to include this directory) for scalapack, an error occurs:

```
Package mpi was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `mpi.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
Package 'mpi', required by 'scalapack', not found
```

Changing the requirement from 'mpi' to 'ompi' fixes the issue.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.1.0-2.fc32

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Described above

Actual results:
pkg-config error

Expected results:
pkg-config queries on scalapack give results

Additional info:
I am experimenting a bit with meson for a project that uses scalapack. This issue means meson currently cannot find scalapack (without the workaround) as it uses pkg-config.
