Hi, there is not MPI packages from boost1.42 nor boost1.40: the packages you're seeing are just wrappers from boost-default that don't contains anything: they depends on 'non-existing' boost1.42 mpi packages. As I said before, the mpi packages has been dropped in December from the main Boost pa

Because of the way Boost packages are built, there is not a good way to build the MPI packages in Ubuntu without pulling all of the MPI stack into Main and no one is willing to do that. The default boost version has, AFAIK, never supported MPI for this reason. If someone can come up with a way to

Fabrice, Ubuntu dropping MPI is a wrong decision (*) in today's increasingly multicore and parallel world. Even though Actor Model, Communicating Sequential Processes (CSP) and Dataflow are far superior models for structuring parallel applications, and there are the new partitioned global address

@Russel: Ubuntu has decided to drop the MPI related packages. That's why there is no libboost-mpi1.42-dev, and that's also why libboost-mpi-dev cannot be installed in Lucid (nor in Maverick). By the way, Squeeze will be released with boost 1.42. @casey: yes: sounds good. Thanks, Fabrice -- [UNM

The fix proposed by Fabrice at #5 deletes the Boost MPI material from the distribution, which has to be the wrong solution to the problem. The correct solution is surely to add the missing packages and correct the dependency in the specification? Ubuntu 10.10 should include a full Boost 1.43 or 1.
