Description Dave Love 2019-04-29 12:44:01 UTC
Description of problem:

I just installed nwchem-openmpi and it failed to find libga when loading because the library dependency got satisfied by ga-mpich, not ga-openmpi.

I saw this on EL7, but presumably all releases need to require ga-mpich or ga-openmpi, as appropriate, in the MPI packages.

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

6.8.1

Comment 1 Dave Love 2019-04-29 16:02:04 UTC
I realize scalapack also needs to be required explicitly.

Steps to reproduce seem to be:

cat /etc/redhat-release 
CentOS Linux release 7.6.1810 (Core) 

yum remove -y nwchem* && yum clean all && echo n | yum install nwchem-openmpi | grep -E "blacs|mpi|scalapack" | grep -v "\-\-"
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
No Match for argument: nwchem*

 nwchem-openmpi           x86_64        6.8.1-4.el7           epel         14 M
 ga-openmpi               x86_64        5.6.5-1.el7           epel        1.5 M
 openmpi                  x86_64        1.10.7-2.el7          base        3.1 M
 scalapack-openmpi        x86_64        2.0.2-15.el7          epel        1.7 M

yum -y install mpich
