Description mleary 2013-02-01 23:47:49 UTC

Description of problem:

pypar-openmpi installs in:

/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/openmpi/pypar

it should install in:

/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/compat-openmpi/pypar

because it is dynamically linked to the compat-openmpi version of the openmpi libraries.  This causes the pypar python module to fail to load.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

pypar-openmpi-2.1.4_94-2.el6.x86_64

Steps to Reproduce:
1. module load openmpi-x86_64
2. python
3. import pypar
  
Actual results:

ERROR: C extension mpiext could not be imported.
Please compile mpiext.c e.g. by running
  python compile_pypar_manually.py
in the pypar directory, or by using
  python setup.py install

WARNING: MPI library could not be initialised - running sequentially

Expected results:

Pypar (version 2.1.4) initialised MPI OK with 1 processors

Additional info:

You easily can workaround this my manually modifying the necessary env variables or loading both the openmpi and compat-openmpi modules, but that should not be necessary.  Easy fix is to change the install location of the rpm.

Comment 1 Susi Lehtola 2013-02-02 00:20:53 UTC

Thanks for the report. OpenMPI has been updated in an RHEL update, so I'll just recompile the package against the current version.
