I'm trying to use ParMetis with PETSc but I already have the ParMetis
distribution. As opposed to using the option
--download-parmetis=1 is it possible to specify the location of the
parmetis directory in the same manner as the mpi directory.
In other words can I do something like
--with-parmetis-dir=/usr/local/ParMetis-3.1/
I tried this particular line but I ran the configure script I got the
error
*********************************************************************************
UNABLE to CONFIGURE with GIVEN OPTIONS (see configure.log for
details):
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--with-parmetis-dir=/usr/local/ParMetis-3.1 did not work
*********************************************************************************
Is there another way to specify the parmetis directory or should I just
use --download-parmetis=1?
Thanks,
Laslo
