Great, thanks very much!

I assume that's an mpi-defaults transition issue.  The petsc there now
was built with LAM on arches where new packages are built with MPICH2.
I think the new upload will fix this.

That said, PETSc has sat in NEW for a week now, not sure what's up with
that...

So I tried to build SLEPc, and got the following error:

Checking environment...
Checking PETSc installation...
Checking ARPACK library...
Checking LAPACK library...
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./configure", line 10, in <module>
    execfile(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), 'config', 'configure.py'))
  File "./config/configure.py", line 361, in <module>
    import cmakeboot
  File "/home/hazelsct/slepc-3.2-p3.dfsg/config/cmakeboot.py", line 7, in <module>
    import script
ImportError: No module named script
make: *** [build-arch] Error 1
dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules build gave error exit status 2

Any ideas?
