[Bug 700036] Re: package blcr-dkms 0.8.2-15ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: blcr kernel module failed to build - error: ‘struct signal_struct’ has no member named ‘count’

[pablomme]

Could somebody please change the openmpi-bin package dependency on
openmpi-checkpoint from "recommends" to "suggests", to stop the flood of
duplicates? This is what most commonly pulls blcr-dkms, which is non
functional since kernel 2.6.35 and its failing to build causes an error
to show up on every attempt to rebuild the dkms modules, which users
tend to eventually report. There's about 0.95 reports a day on average
(116 duplicates between 18 November and 21 April).

libmpich2-2 also pulls it in via its "depends" on libcr0 - I think this
is a mistake, it should be a "recommends" at most, but preferably a
"suggests", like for OpenMPI. Neither MPI library needs blcr to work.

NB, "sudo apt-get remove blcr-dkms" will stop the error showing up.
