Automatic partitioning does not use METIS and does not work across
nodes. It might be a problem with your METIS or deal with METIS
install. Since your are loading a module for deal.II, I assume that
deal was installed by an administrator, right? If that's the case, you
should tell them that step-17 doesn't work. I don't know what else can
be wrong.

Sorry
