I've managed to backport setup.py to release-3.1. It does not require<br>
any change to BuildSystem or install.py, as I'm simply using<br>
os.system() to spawn configure, make and install. Matt agreed that we<br>
could add setup.py to release-3.1 (as it would not break anything),<br>
and then get the beast working right now. As a plus, this could also<br>
be done with SLEPc and slepc4py.<br>
<br>
Other far less intrusive alternative would be to just upload PETSc<br>
(and SLEPc) tarballs to PyPI containing my setup.py. Then nothing have<br>
to be done with current PETSc and SLEPc releases. What do you think?<br>
