[FEniCS] Ubuntu 13.10 installation

[Michael Wathen]

Hi,

I updated by Ubuntu operating system last week and it broke my FEniCS 
installation (where I installed it using dorsal before). I have retried 
installing using dorsal but I now get an error when installing dolfin-1.2.

I have hacked with the CMakeList.txt to get some sort of version working 
but it will not like to both PETSc and Trilinos at the same time. Is 
there anything else I should try apart from hacking CMakeList.txt?

Cheers,

Michael
