Sorry to come in on the end of this without knowing the context. If |
| 14 |
everything that follows is irrelevant to the question, just ignore. |

Both sys-cluster/lam-mpi and sys-cluster/mpich provide implementations |
| 17 |
of mpi (message passing interface, I believe) to allow building |
| 18 |
computation clusters, similar to PVM (parallel virtual machine). |
| 19 |
Unfortunately, lam-mpi and mpich are not quite compatible. A |
| 20 |
few packages (few = 2 to 5) depend explicitly on lam-mpi in case |
| 21 |
of USE='mpi ...', and apparently cannot use mpich. (dev-libs/fftw-2.x |
| 22 |
series, app-sci/gromacs, app-sci/orsa, app-sci/tree-puzzle) |
