Package: libmpich2-dev
Version: 1.2.1-2
Severity: normal

mpicc needlessly sets RPATH in all binaries it compiles, causing any package
built with it to fail the relevant lintian check:

% mpicc.mpich2 -show
cc -g -O2 -g -Wall -O2 -I/usr/include/mpich2 -L/usr/lib -L/usr/lib -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib -lmpich -lopa -lpthread -lrt
                                                                   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
