[Pkg-scicomp-devel] Bug#470418: libmesh: Please add scotchmetis support

[Adam C Powell IV]

Package: libmesh
Version: 0.6.1.dfsg-3
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

Greetings,

The attached patch adds mesh partitioning support to libmesh in parallel
runs using the scotch metis compatibility layer.  It still needs two
things to be complete:
      * libmesh0.6.1-dev needs to depend on libscotch-dev
      * README.Debian needs to add -lscotchmetis -lscotch -lscotcherr to
        the list of libraries needed to compile an example code
(Sorry I haven't added these to the patch, but I've been sitting on it
for more than a week and just want to get it in.)

Thanks,
-Adam
