Description Dominique Delande 2011-06-10 11:49:17 UTC

Description of problem: After installing the package scalapack-openmpi,
a link from  libscalapack.so.1.0.0 to libscalapack.so is missing
in /usr/lib64/scalapack-openmpi.
Setting manually the link fixes the problem. 
By the way, it would be more logical to put the library
in /usr/lib64/openmpi/lib, where the blacs library already are.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
scalapack-openmpi-1.7.5-13.fc15.x86_64


How reproducible: 100%


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install scalapack-openmpi-1.7.5-13.fc15.x86_64
2. Go to /usr/lib64/scalapack-openmpi
3. ls -l shows that a link is missing
  
Actual results: cannot load the scalapack library


Expected results:

So, this isn't valid. Nothing should be trying to load the unversioned .so at runtime. That link exists in the scalapack-openmpi-devel package, but you should only need that link to compile things against scalapack-openmpi, not to simply use it (hence, the separation).
