[ewg] OFED installation on RH5 UP2

[Olga Shern]

Hi Vlad,

 

I see OFED installation / uninstallation (install.pl / uninstall.sh)
failure on RH5 UP2 full OS installation.

 

There are three different issues:

1.	only relevant for uninstall.sh - on RH5 UP2 openmpi is installed
as 32 and 64 bit library to remove it need 

      to add --allmatches  flag to rpm -e command 

 

2.	On RH5 UP2 compat-dapl-1.2.5 is installed and  rpm -q
compat-dapl  return NULL in this case,

      Need to add compat-dapl-1.2.5 as part of the rpms that need to be
removed in uninstall.sh

 

The attached patch fixes the above two issue

 

3.	lam MPI and mpi-selector RPMs are installed on RH5 UP2.  

      lam mpi is depended on mpi-selector therefore mpi-selector cannot
not be removed

 

      I don't have a simple solution for this because we cannot remove
lam mpi.

      One of the solutions that I can think about, is not to remove
mpi-selector only update it.

      What do you think?

 

Regards,

Olga
