[ Forgot add here that now that we have proper MPICH2 everywhere, it serves
as a fallback where Open MPI --- which AFAIK is still the default where
available --- cannot be used. ]

|
| Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 7.0), mpi-default-dev
|
| and here is my Rmpi package (which also needs R):
|
| Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 7.0.0), cdbs, r-base-dev (>= 2.12.0),
mpi-default-dev
|
| Hope this helps, Dirk
