That's what I feared. :) I noticed in your log, that you forgot to execute these lines: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/# ls -l /etc/alternatives/libmpi.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 32 Feb 13 21:38 /etc/alternatives/libmpi.so -> /usr/lib/openmpi/lib/libmpi.so.0 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/# ls -l /usr/lib/openmpi/lib/libmpi.so.0 ls: cannot access /usr/lib/openmpi/lib/libmpi.so.0: No such file or directory Do they work for you too? To make it clear: /etc/alternatives/libmpi.so -> /usr/lib/openmpi/lib/libmpi.so.0 But the /usr/lib/openmpi/lib/libmpi.so.0 is broken for me. In your output, you only tested for /usr/lib/openmpi/lib/libmpi.so, but this works for me too. > Is there a chance than some of the pieces in your cowbuilder are dated or > something similar?

It happens on all of my computers I tried that (4). So I think it must be some systematical problem. I run the latest unstable on all of them and regularly update. So first I tried to find some way so that you can reproduce the problem too. Go to some new directory and: $ touch base.tgz $ sudo pbuilder --create --basetgz ./base.tgz --mirror http://ftp.cz.debian.org/debian $ sudo pbuilder --login --basetgz ./base.tgz # apt-get install libopenmpi-dev # ls -l /etc/alternatives/libmpi.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 32 Feb 13 21:33 /etc/alternatives/libmpi.so -> /usr/lib/openmpi/lib/libmpi.so.0 # ls -l /usr/lib/openmpi/lib/libmpi.so.0 ls: cannot access /usr/lib/openmpi/lib/libmpi.so.0: No such file or directory (I think you can substitute ftp.cz.debian.org for ftp.de.debian.org, but I didn't try this - but I doubt this could influence the result) I am curious if it is going to work for you, then we have an interesting problem to solve, as the above commands should be computer && setup independent. > here. Could you possibly try to execute those commands by hand? The postinst > for package $foo is always /var/lib/dpkg/info/$foo.postinst. You mean in pbuilder?
