[mpich-discuss] Heterogeneous cluster support?

[Camilo Rostoker]

Hi,

I am also trying to compile for heterogeneous support.  When I configure
using the flags Pavan gave in the last email, I get this error:

---[snip]---
checking for library containing uuid_generate... no
checking for poll stdin capability... yes
checking for library containing MD5... no
checking for MD5... no
checking for library containing md5_calc... no
checking for md5_calc function... no
configure: error: SMPD requires MD5 support, and configure could not find
either md5_calc in md5.h or MD5 in openssl/md5.h
configure: error: Configure of src/pm/smpd failed!


I read through the mpich-discuss archives and found a discussion about
passing some compiler flags, so I retried with these configuration options:

 $ ./configure --enable-debuginfo --with-pm=smpd --with-pmi=smpd
--disable-f77 --disable-f90 MPICH2LIB_CFLAGS=-fPIC
-I/usr/local/ssl/include/openssl
MPICH2LIB_LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/ssl/lib/openssl


which gets through configure properly, but fails during make as it cannot
find a reference to md5_calc.

I am using Ubuntu Hardy and have installed the newest version of openssl,
which doesn't seem to have md5_calc in md5.h.

Can someone direct me to the right package that will install the necessary
md5 functionality?

Thanks
Camilo
