Hello all,

The main issue I am trying to solve is the compilation of the program in 
the code gallery at this link :

https://dealii.org/developer/doxygen/deal.II/code_gallery_Quasi_static_Finite_strain_Quasi_incompressible_ViscoElasticity.html

The compilation is failing because dealii is unable to find METIS. I have 
an installation of dealii with mpi, p4est, petsc (with METIS), slepc and 
trilinos. I have tried two things :

1) Installing METIS separately and pointing dealii to the installation 
folder for METIS while configuring the dealii installation. This did not 
work because dealii was unable to find certain .so files that it requires.

2) Installing petsc with METIS so that dealii will pick up the METIS that 
petsc downloaded. I also tried to use the cmake configuration options to 
point dealii to the METIS installation that came with petsc, but I must 
have given the wrong path.
 
Is there a way to get dealii to recognise the fact that metis was already 
installed on the system when petsc was installed ? Are there any 
configuration options necessary while compiling METIS separately that make 
it easier to install with dealii ? Are there any other ways to provide a 
METIS installation to dealii ? I appreciate any help in this regard.

Thanking you,
Best Regards,
Sudip Kunda
