We are discussing the complete removal of pkgconfig support from openmpi
(and never including it in mvapich and mvapich2 which are ready for
Fedora package review submission). The proper way to invoke mpi
compiles is through the use of the mpicc (or equivalent) compiler
instead of directly via cc/gcc with -I and -L -l statements. The reason
is that the proper list of things to pass to gcc may vary from build to
build and while mpicc is built each time and is always in sync with the
options used to build the mpi package, the pkgconfig files are handled
manually and subject to bit rot over time.
If there are objections, please raise them now.
