OpenFOAM 2.0.0 is up. Biggest changes are here: http://www.openfoam.com/version2.0.0/ The dependencies have changed to include parmetis (which includes metis), scotch and ptscotch-openmpi. Paraview is no longer optional. The system install of openMPI is used by default.

Openfoam 2.0.0 was released yesterday! I'm running through the builds right now, and will have updated packages up later today. I also believe I have figured out the openmpi issues, and the problems with Metis and Scotch decomposition methods. Just requires some minor patching for some arch specific dependencies.

I have an idea as to why openmpi isn't working properly with OpenFOAM. The OpenFOAM path setup appears to cause openmpi to look for some settings in the ThirdParty libraries, even if you have not installed the full ThirdParty group and are instead using a system openmpi. I actually ran across this when building another package with openmpi, and I traced the cause to OpenFOAM. I am going to step back through the OpenFOAM configs and find out where this is happening. It shouldn't be too hard to force OpenFOAM to use the system openMPI.

did anyone get openmpi working? Metis doesnt seem to work, too.

Thanks for trying it. I will have to give it a test myself and let you know what i run into.

It does not seem to work, the linker complains about missing symbols though these symbols seem to be present in /usr/lib/openmpi (according to grep). Maybe openfoam needs openmpi 1.4, whereas the version from community is 1.5?

I'm afraid I have not tried building Paraview with openmpi from community. You might try setting the environment variable WM_MPLIB=SYSTEMOPENMPI before configuring and building OpenFOAM. That should cause openfoam's settings.sh file to call mpicc and pickup the flags it needs to build against it. Let me know if you have any luck.

I have installed openmpi from community, how can I enable it in openfoam? Thanks!

Big thanks for checking the 64bit compile; I just hadn't gotten around to it yet. Package has been updated.
