Package: metis Followup-For: Bug #961183 Hi Fred, I guess the simple reason why there's no pkgconfig for Metis is that upstream does not provide one. We could add one ourselves easily enough. But SCOTCH-Metis compatibility would want to be taken into consideration. Historically SCOTCH-Metis nev

Doing it through a formal transition request is sensible. There's a backlog of numerical library upgrades (some still in the NEW queue) waiting for bullseye to get released. Perhaps we can run this transition at the same time as the others, process them all as a bulk transition. We'll set it u

Package: metis Followup-For: Bug #961183 64-bit integers are now available for several libraries. 64-bit PETSc is able to use 64-bit SuperLU-Dist, which we don't currently have. 64-bit SuperLU-Dist requires 64-bit metis. In principle 64-bit metis is simple to configure: set IDXTYPEWIDTH to 64 i

Should add a caveat on the urgency: this bug report is Wishlist, really. That's because mumps uses scotch rather than metis. This is because parmetis is not available (not-free). If the licence for parmetis became free, then we would use it with mumps (and would be looking for a 64-bit build)
