[gentoo-cluster] eselect-mpi and boost mpi

[Bryan Green]

Hello,

Now that I am using empi/eselect-mpi, I would like to install boost-1.35.0
with its MPI library (it has an 'mpi' use flag).
When I try to emerge it, it trys to pull in sys-cluster/openmpi as a
dependency.  I tried adding sys-cluster/openmpi to
/etc/portage/package.provided, but for some reason that does not work.

Any suggestions on how to get boost-mpi to build against my eselected
MPI?  I also wonder if it would really be necessary build a version of boost
for each MPI package installed, using 'empi --add ...'.  That seems like
overkill.

Thanks,
