Details

Description:

`/usr/bin/perf` occures in both `community/hdf5-openmpi` and `community/perf`

Additional info:
* package version(s): hdf5-openmpi:1.12.2 perf:5.17

Rationale:

The `/usr/bin/perf` in `community/hdf5-openmpi` is just a small executable providing some performance numbers for the user, perhaps we could just ditch it or rename it in the `PKGBUILD/install()`
```
$LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/tmp/hdf5-openmpi/usr/lib/ ./tmp/hdf5-openmpi/usr/bin/perf -h
./perf: invalid option -- 'h'
# Using hdf5-io calls.
*** Hint ***
You can use environment variable HDF5_PARAPREFIX to run parallel test files in a
different directory or to add file type prefix. e.g.,
HDF5_PARAPREFIX=pfs:/PFS/user/me
export HDF5_PARAPREFIX
*** End of Hint ***
nr_procs = 1, nr_iter = 1, blk_sz = 16777216
# total_size = 16777216
# Write: min_time = 0.006335, max_time = 0.006335, mean_time = 0.006335
# Read: min_time = 0.010286, max_time = 0.010286, mean_time = 0.010286
Write bandwidth = 2648.340101 Mbytes/sec
Read bandwidth = 1631.068633 Mbytes/sec

Reason for closing:  Upstream
Additional comments about closing:  Upstream removed perf, so did we in 1.12.2-3.

I would have renamed to h5perf, but that already exists too. Any other name idea?
Comment by Levente Polyak (anthraxx) - Saturday, 21 May 2022, 14:15 GMT
Ptobably raise it upstream to let them choose an official none conflicting name that will be uniform across different distros instead of choosing ourselves?

@anthraxx: Already did: https://github.com/HDFGroup/hdf5/issues/1787
@archange:. Maybe h5perf_parallel in contrast with h5perf_serial

What shall be done until upstream solves the issue? This is blocking system upgrade for people.
Comment by bartus (bartus) - Friday, 17 June 2022, 10:05 GMT
@lahwaacz suggestions :
1. rename this sh!t and repackage.
2. sudo rm -rf /
