Hi Matt,

Thanks for the update and sorry for my slow response. I’ve tested today and the 
new version of zoltan downloads and compiles fine through PETSC. However, we 
still require the fortran .mod files within Fluidity. Rather than add the new 
flag, as I previously suggested (which was zoltan specific: 
-with-zoltan-fortran-interfaces), could the fortran interfaces in zoltan (i.e. 
the configure flag “ -enable-f90interface”) simply be included when we specify 
-with-fortran-interfaces=1 in petsc configure?

Best wishes,

Rhod

Dear Devs,

Would it be possible for you to update the version of Zoltan packaged with 
PETSc to version 3.8.1? This version upgrades Zoltan's interface to ParMETIS v4 
and Scotch v6, which are the versions of these libraries that PETSc currently 
defaults to.

I can do this when I get home. Note that we are not really using this in PETSc 
now, do you could just install it if you want.

On a related note, is there currently a way to pass the Zoltan configure flag “ 
-enable-f90interface", to the zoltan build, through PETSc? In Fluidity, we 
currently depend on these fortran interfaces (.mod files), so this option would 
be highly desirable for us. If it’s not currently possible, could you add an 
optional “--with-zoltan-fortran-interfaces” to PETSc configure?

Yes, this is easy to pass. Note that Michael Lange has recently done some great 
work on expanding
Fluidity to use DMPlex for PETSc for dynamic rebalancing. Have you talked to 
him? I think it will be
ready in Fluidity later this year.
Hi Matt,

Unfortunately, Zoltan is used in multiple places in Fluidity, so there will 
still be a dependency overlap for a while. A version update would thus be much 
appreciated.

I have bumped the version in 'next' and tried it out on my laptop. Let me know 
if it works for you guys.

  Thanks,

    Matt

Thanks,
Michael

  Thanks,

     Matt

Best wishes,
