I'm glad to hear that you found and solved the source of the Scotch
errors! Thanks for all of your work on this.

This makes a lot of sense. If they could use libtool, which does this
automatically, our life would be easier...

I'm generally not a fan of merging patches like this. But in this case
with lots of overlapping patches and all the changes you have made, I
think it makes sense, so I'm okay to do it this way. I'm going to
change the header a bit though, and maybe the patch file name.

Wow, thanks for being so thorough!

Thank you Pierre. I will look over them carefully and merge them into
the git repository, then upload.
Already I can see a few issues:
* I noticed that you removed -I/usr/include/lam from the CCS and
CCD commands. I don't remember the exact reasons, but those
were required for the LAM architectures. /usr/include/mpi
should be a symlink to /usr/include/lam, but for some reason
that didn't work. I think it's a worthy goal to try to remove
that for the next upload, but would rather leave it in for this
one.
* In libptscotch-5.1.install, int/lib/libpt*.so is ambiguous: it
includes both the versioned shared libraries and the symlinks
which belong in the -dev package. If those file names are
ambiguous, then only the package order determines which files go
into which package, and that is not good. Same for
libscotch-5.1.install.
* Ah, I see you removed all .so symlinks from the -dev packages,
which is where they belong. So I'm going to ignore
your .install file changes, which are otherwise cosmetic.
I should be able to proceed later today.
