Comment 8 for bug 555729

As Felipe suggests, how about breaking the chain at either openmpi-bin > openmpi-checkpoint or libcr0 > blcr-dkms by using a "suggests" instead of a "recommends"? The latter would appear to be less disruptive, although I consider checkpointing more of an anvanced feature than a necessity in a standard MPI installation..

The point in question, though, is whether libcr0 (which is the main BLCR library) works without the kernel module.

By the way, blcr-modules does not appear to exist in Maverick.
