#229: New mpi module install location and content -----------------------------+------------------ Reporter: orion | Owner: Type: task | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: Component: Guideline Draft | Version: Keywords: | Blocked By: Blocking: | -----------------------------+------------------ I've put up a revised version of the mpi package guidelines here:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/MPI

The change is to install the module file under a "mpi" sub-directory and and "conflict mpi" to the module file to avoid being able to load multiple mpi modules at one time. See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=651074 for some background.

This has already been done in the openmpi package, but not yet in the mpich2 package, but I believe it should. This is a common standard to use with environment modules. In fact it calls for a revision of that guideline as well, which I'll try to get to soon.
