I just copied the<tt> petsc-dev </tt>subtree using the commands<br>
<blockquote><tt>hg clone <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="http://$USER:$PASSWORD@petsc.cs.iit.edu/petsc/petsc-dev">http://$USER:$PASSWORD@petsc.cs.iit.edu/petsc/petsc-dev</a><br>
cd petsc-dev/config<br>
hg clone
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://$USER:$PASSWORD@petsc.cs.iit.edu/petsc/BuildSystem">http://$USER:$PASSWORD@petsc.cs.iit.edu/petsc/BuildSystem</a><br>
cd ..<br>
export PETSC_DIR=$PWD<br>
./configure --with-cc=gcc --with-fc=mpif90
--download-f-blas-lapack=1 --download-mpich=1 --download-hdf5=1</tt><br>
</blockquote>
It looks like the file<tt> petsc-dev/configure </tt>has changed in
the last day or two:<br>
<blockquote><tt>#!/usr/bin/env python
#!/usr/bin/env python</tt><br>
<tt>
<</tt><br>
<tt>import sys
<</tt><br>
<tt>if sys.version_info.major > 2:
<</tt><br>
<tt> print('Configure does not support Python 3 yet, please run
as') <</tt><br>
<tt> print(' python2 ' + ' '.join(["'" + a + "'" for a in
sys.argv])) <</tt><br>
<tt> sys.exit(1)
<</tt><br>
<tt>
<</tt><br>
<tt>import os
import os</tt><br>
<tt>execfile(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), 'config',
'configure.py'))
execfile(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), 'config',
'configure.py'))</tt><br>
</blockquote>
and no longer works in my environment:<br>
<blockquote><tt>Traceback (most recent call last):</tt><br>
<tt> File "./configure", line 4, in <module></tt><br>
<tt> if sys.version_info.major > 2:</tt><br>
<tt>AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'major'</tt><br>
</blockquote>
If I remove the test, it works.<br>
Are you in the middle of making & testing code changes?<br>
And if so, when do you expect it to be stable?<br>
<br>
I'm running Ubuntu Linux 10.04.1 64-bit on i7.<br>
Are there additional parameters I need to pass to<tt> ./configure</tt>
or other packages I need to install?<br>
Thanks,<br>
