Thanks for the reply. Here is the chain of links: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ll /usr/lib/libmpi.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 2008-02-09 01:56 /usr/lib/libmpi.so -> /etc/alternatives/libmpi.so [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ll /etc/alternatives/libmpi.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 32 2008-02-09 01:56 /etc/alternatives/libmpi.so -> /usr/lib/openmpi/lib/libmpi.so.0 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ll /usr/lib/openmpi/lib/libmpi.so.0 ls: cannot access /usr/lib/openmpi/lib/libmpi.so.0: No such file or directory [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ wajig list-files libopenmpi1 [...] /usr/lib/openmpi/lib/openmpi/mca_paffinity_linux.so /usr/lib/openmpi/lib/openmpi/mca_topo_unity.so /usr/lib/openmpi/lib/libmca_common_sm.so.0.0.0 /usr/lib/openmpi/lib/libopen-pal.so.0.0.0 /usr/lib/openmpi/lib/libmpi.so.0.0.0 /usr/lib/openmpi/lib/libmpi_f77.so.0.0.0 /usr/lib/openmpi/lib/libmpi_f90.so.0.0.0 [...] So only the file: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls /usr/lib/openmpi/lib/libmpi.so.0.0.0 /usr/lib/openmpi/lib/libmpi.so.0.0.0 is installed. Any ideas why is it so? I think it could be some left over, I know I had similar problems before. The solution was to uninstall everything (I did try this), and then remove some links using update-alternatives (I didn't try this yet).
