[petsc-dev] Get a list of package download URL

[Blaise A Bourdin]

Hi,

I am working with a company whose cluster is an a private network without connectivity to the outside world. Our process to install petsc is to manually extract the packages URL from config/BuildSystem/packages/ and download the appropriate files.
Another approach is to run configure and let it fail when it cannot download a package, note the download URL, and manually download it from a separate machine.

Is there a quicker way to get the URL of all packages that will be downloaded without running through the whole configure process? 

Assuming that I know the list of package that I will want, is there a programmatic way to figure out what os the download URL for say Metis or sowing?

Regards,
Blaise
