Last week, Olivier Gayout was in #ubuntu-devel and asked for a NCR of
netgen against mpi-defaults 1.17. Well, it turned out that wasn't the
only package that needed it, as we found a ton of rdepends that needed
rebuilding against the new mpi-defaults. Ultimately, several ended up
completely FTBFS on GCC-14 [1] and a handful only on armhf [2]. The vast
majority are upstream issues in Debian and I have found the upstream
bugs, but there are a few standouts.
- hdf5 is fixed in Debian, but will need a substantial merge.
- scalapack says it's fixed in Debian, but I've deduced that if they
were to rebuild it would fail again. Upstream's recommendation is to not
use GCC-14 [3]. Obviously not an option.
- Miriam España Acebal fixed the armhf problem with form, I sponsored
(Thanks Miriam!).
- mumps is actually an mpi bug, still working on what the Debian bug
is there, needs a new bug filed.
- netcdf is our bug, nothing upstream in Debian. Needs more investigation.
- r-cran-metamix is removed from Debian, needs to be removed from
Ubuntu, no rdeps other than a metapackage, bug already filed [4] .
That said, this turned into a much larger project than I thought it
would be, and all that's left is the FTBFS issues. If anyone can
join-in, please do!
