I did the same yesterday, and things are almost working. No problems with petsc, but there is a problem with openmpi. This is fixed for Debian Sid, but not in Ubuntu. Johannes made a replacement package available on packages.simula.no (see the README file).
There is no need for MPI whatsoever if scotch and petsc are unavailable? I guess the build system should avoid using mpi in that case. ilmar Martin Sandve Alnæs skrev: > I've just set up a fresh install of Kubuntu Hardy with FEniCS software > on my new home laptop. > > Good news: > - A minimal dolfin build only requires dependencies from apt in Ubuntu Hardy. > > Bad news: > - The petsc version installed by apt isn't seen by scons. > - I got a lot of errors (crashes) when running the tests.
