[petsc-users] Configure takes very long

[Hom Nath Gharti]

Dear all,

With version > 3.7.4, I notice that the configure takes very long
about 24 hours!

Configure process hangs at the line:

TESTING: configureMPIEXEC from
config.packages.MPI(config/BuildSystem/config/packages/MPI.py:143)

Following is my configure command:

./configure -with-blas-lapack-dir=/opt/intel/compilers_and_libraries_2017.2.174/linux/mkl/lib/intel64
--with-cc=mpicc --with-cxx=mpicxx --with-fc=mpif90
--with-mpiexec=mpiexec --with-debugging=1 --download-scalapack
--download-mumps --download-pastix --download-superlu
--download-superlu_dist --download-metis --download-parmetis
--download-ptscotch --download-hypre

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks,
