Would be better to link to

  http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=petsc

since

  http://lyre.mit.edu/~powell/petsc.html

(linked from the web page) is at 2.3.0 and includes lots of terribly
outdated discussion (e.g. SIDL).

Also licensing restrictions on dependencies (e.g. ParMETIS) would
require that the package be broken into "free" and "non-free" pieces.
