And there is a GPLed implementation of this at

   http://sourceforge.net/projects/fis-gtm

which would be really interesting to package for the Debian Med project.
The problem is the bootstrapping procedure (you need a running GT.M to
compile the next version) and we just have no idea how to deal with this.

So keeping in mind to avoid a name space polution would be nice but I
would not like to set a presure on the issuer of the ITP because of
GT.M because it is questionable whether we might ever find a real clue.
So feel free to do what you regard as common sense.

Kind regards

  Andreas.

ITP: MUMPS -- MUltifrontal Massively Parallel sparse direct Solver

Description: MUltifrontal Massively Parallel sparse direct Solver

MUMPS implements a direct solver for large sparse linear systems, with a
particular focus on symmetric positive definite matrices.  It can
operate on distributed matrices e.g. over a cluster.  It has Fortran and
C interfaces, and can interface with ordering tools such as METIS.

Version 9.3 of Code_Aster (ITP 458812) uses MUMPS, so this package will
play a role in that packaging effort.
