Hey guys,
I decided to ask if he would be willing to add an epoc tag as Ken

Point him to the MPI packaging guidelines. They are nothing more than
all the things that have to be done in order for more than one copy of

peacefully. Unless you have a dire need for it, it's a royal pain in
the ass. And have him read the openmpi spec file too, it really
exemplifies how ugly this stuff gets.
