Title:
  openmpi pulls non-installable blcr-dkms as dependency: breaks
  lucid->maverick upgrade

Status in Software Updater:
  Invalid
Status in openmpi package in Ubuntu:

Status in update-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  In my workstation the upgrade path from Lucid to Maverick was broken
  by an unexpected need to install blcr-dkms, which is broken in
  maverick (Bug 555729). It was pulled from the following dependency
  chain:

  * tree-ppuzzle was installed in lucid. Its maverick version depends on openmpi-bin
  * openmpi-bin recommends openmpi-checkpoint
  * openmpi-checkpoint depends on libcr0
  * libcr0 recommends blcr-dkms, which was blacklisted in dist upgrade, as per Bug 555729.

  None of the above packages was installed in lucid, previously to the
  dist-upgrade, except for tree-ppuzzle. Removing tree-ppuzzle was the
  only way found to dist-upgrade.
